This is just to say
I loved
the soma
that was
readily supplied

and which
is given to
insure happiness
and complete stability

Forgive me
but life is
too hard and
soma is so convenient

This is just to say
I broke
your zipper
that was on
your jacket

and which
you probably
wanted
to wear again

Forgive me
but I could not
allow you to
look better than me


This is just to say
I may have given
my friend purple
hair dye
instead of shampoo

and which
was probably
very mean and
not necessary

Forgive me
but I could not have
everyone notice
my bad haircut

This is just to say
I threw
all of my clothes
under my bed

and which
didn’t accomplish
the chore of
cleaning my room

Forgive me
but I could not
be bothered by this chore
when Modern Family is on

This is just to say
I ate
the sandwich
that was on
the table

and which
you probably
just made
for lunch

Forgive me
but I was very
hungry and too
lazy to make my own

This is just to say
I helped
him cheat
on the exam
for Spanish

and which
was probably
wrong and
dishonest

Forgive me
but I may have
confused my languages
and given him answers in French

This is just to say
I ran
the red light
in the very
busy intersection

and which
was probably
very dangerous and
not to mention illegal

Forgive me
but I was late
and McDonald’s breakfast
ends at 10:30

This is just to say
I am
very lost
and all
alone

and it is no one’s
fault but
neither society
was right

Forgive me
but I had no choice
happiness awaited me
in the next life
