Thank you for sharing your poem, "Tragic Regret." I appreciate the concise and evocative imagery you've used to convey a sense of loss and missed opportunity. Here are a few suggestions to consider:

At first glance, I thought your title was clunky...But reading through to the end of this piece, it made sense to me.

What I got out of the poem might be different than what others did (Or even what you meant.) by the way, I really like the style of your poem. It is *In Your Face, right up front lines. I read it out loud, and it was very impactful! (back to my impressions of your poem...)

first stanza: leaving an argument unresolved. It is raining...

second stanza: driving faster than the conditions call for. Losing control of the steering wheel in slow motion. regret sets in.

third stanza: the sudden stop is a last wish for a do over of the last conversation with the loved one!
this poem sent my mind reeling!

the flow is perfect. I would not change a word of this piece!

been there! I used to ride, and I can see myself clearly in this poem. Rainy days are the worst. You have less traction than most other vehicles on the road, and regardless of most people's ideas of how fast a motorcycle can stop or lose traction, they do not stop quickly, and steer even worse! The yellow paint on the road is terribly slick and has caused many accidents for bikers. Now that I know that it is a poem of riding a motorcycle, I see it even better! Very well done. ~ Geezer.

with you and Geezer! I rode a motorcycle long ago. the worst was riding at night in the rain. But we did it anyway...
