I apologize

Don’t know why. I was moved to apologize.

Maybe cuz of Trump,
Manafort,
Nouman Raja,

detained immigrant children,
police brutality,
Parkland,
Sandy Hook,
Orlando,
Columbine.

Maybe because of Yemen,
Syria,
Afghanistan.

One too many blackface wearers,
and an extra Liam Neeson.

Maybe because of
#Metoo incidents,
Harvey Weinstein,
R. Kelly & ….
Michael Jackson.

Accept my apology.

Add failing schools,
white supremacy,
black-on-black,
brown-on-brown
& white-on-white crime.

Oh, yes. It happens.

Accept my apology for
lack of a livable wage;
inadequate health care
and greenhouse gases.

Accept my apology.

Accept my apology for
all the shit that’s happened
and the shit to come.

The crumbling schools,
the limping planet,
the sexual abuse,
the misogyny.

Accept my apology for
all of it.

I’m responsible,
as are you.

If no one else has apologized
or told you that
they’re sorry,

let me do so
now.

Yes, he was a poor excuse,
she’s an asshole
if ever there was
one.

We all suck and
he’s the enemy.

I apologize for
all of it.

For humanity.
Our part in the Blame Trade.

The witnesses that saw
us do it.

I apologize

& I’m not ashamed.

I’ll hold your hand
as we get through it.
