Mother to Daughter
At the end of every seven years
thou shalt make a release
Deuteronomy 15:1 KJV
You thinking of the debts not paid
Dragging them behind you
Packing them up every time you move
Rehearsing each mistake
Listening to the clatter
Rubbing the calloused spots
Ain't they heavy
Just put them down
I'm telling you
To kick them aside
Shake yourself loose
You and me got a lot
to talk about

Loved this, Linda. . . the brevity, the verbs, the message and the open ended ending. Well done!
