On Saying 'sorry'
A flip "sorry" sometimes comes with a smirk
Like, in truth, they meant what they said,
But they needed to cover their tracks, so,
They used a half-hearted cliche instead.
Lest this smart retort returns to haunt me
And Karma rains on me my just due
I cover my tracks with a faint admission
That sometimes I really don't have a clue.
