YOU COMPLIMENTED MY POEM AND I DID NOT HAVE THE CONSIDERATION TO READS YOURS br br You complimented my poem and I did not have the consideration to read yours br Now I apologize to you without mentioning your name br Or reading your poem- br br A weak apology br Meant to get me off the hook- br br Still I know how lonely it is to write and write br And not hear the words you want to hear in reply br br Forgive me br Perhaps I will read your poem or poems one day- br But I cannot promise.
