I agree with Sara. This piece is about self-reflection for me. We can always look over our shoulder and view the past, and measure how far we have traveled.
Such a nice piece.

Love this piece, Jaya! I interpret it as needing to tackle and understand your past (over your shoulder) first in order to truly improve yourself for the future. Thanks for sharing xx

Self-reflection, awareness of the present, and a positive attitude make everyone’s lives better. You have said this beautifully and with great simplicity in this haiku.

Sometimes the shortest poems can be the most powerful, which is definitely the case with this one.

Another great piece! I interpret this as the idea of looking back and reflecting on things that’ve happened to you with a whole new perspective, and then moving forward by working on yourself x

Food for thought…look back over your shoulder. This makes me think of the many things we have yet to resolve and confront, yet life always tells us to keep looking forward. How can we when the baggage keeps us chained and reminds us it needs clearing?

A marvelous way of expressing this! While it can hurt to hold yourself back when you should move forward, it is good to know when to pause and clean up.
