Short Apologised Poems

UNINTENTIONALLY I offended you
SINCERELY I apologised to you
VEHEMENTLY you refused my apologies
INSTICTIVELY I shore up my defence
AUTOMATICALLY you get crossed
TRUTHFULLY *'I no send'!

I placed the saran wrap on the commode,
Laughing, I waited till she had to go.
Finally, it was time for her to pee,
Never laughed so hard at a little wee.

I apologised for being that mean,
I drew her a bath so she could get clean.
I promise to never lay the same trap,
I will never again buy saran wrap....

When I let one loose in the elevator,
    I blamed it on last night's baked beans.
    The blast from it sounded like thunder,
    As it tore a large hole in my jeans.

    I apologised to all and sundry,
    For acting like, a silly jackass.
    But my voice became rather squeaky,
    As my flatulence, was pure laughing gas.

It is not the idea of him thrusting upon
her beautiful body that angers me.
It is not how I want to vomit at
the reality that he is no longer mine
alone.
It is the fact that he had kissed her.
Intimacy thought enchanted;
What used to be sacred now soiled.
The very lips that spoke my name,
The very lips that professed love to me,
now rotten, diseased by vixen.
And yet I apologised,
And yet I stayed.

When I let one loose in the elevator
The monk adjacent profusely apologised
The thunder, he affirmed, gift of the Creator
Inhaling it deeply would see divine light realised

Though the mood lightened, kerchiefs were out
Trapped within, behind the moving lifts door 
Embarrassed no more, mind free of doubt
I loudly requested him for an encore
