accidental litter

i feel a tinge of guilt
as the wrapper
flies from
my hand, before i can
put it into the
waste basket.
i have no chance in
retrieving it
in this wind.
i watch it blow and tumble
down the street,
finally out of sight.
chasing it, 
as it is with anything
one chases,
would only bring defeat.
