My Apology
I may not be sorry
for pulling your hair
or showing our classmates
your pink underwear,
and I’m not regretful
for giving you germs
or tricking you into
digesting those worms…
But this time I bugged you
and chose to attack,
you didn’t ignore it;
instead, you fought back!
Now since we’re both smelly,
I’m sorry – it’s true –
that I threw those rotten
tomatoes at you.
