A magician once told me to live with no regrets

How can you live a life with no regrets?

This seems a bizarre and foreign concept

I am a figurine that has seen the dice roll on the wrong side many a times

The cruelty of my actions has caused others to suffer

I have regrets, I have trepidation 

The whole circus has been witness to the mistakes of the ringmaster 

How dare you say to live with no regrets, do you not regret your very ignorance?

Learn from your mistakes, sure

But do not pretend you have no qualms

Just so you can mask the pain of your past actions

The only one fooled is you

the joker
