Tonight I write by candle light
Choking on carbon monoxide
Just to say
I am sorry
I ripped your heart out
with my teeth I gnawed
Played with you like a kitten
with hidden cougar claws
I’ll leave this note on your kitchen fridge
In the room I know so well
This echoes william carlos williams
I am an artist of plagiarism
I am a cheap con
and maybe you were right about me
Maybe I’m in the wrong
But tonight I write by candlelight
Fourteen hundred miles away
with a heavy heart I’m sorry
“This is just to say,”
I’m sorry I stole your peaches
They were, indeed, so sweet
If you want I’ll pay you back
Just please don’t wallow in defeat
I hope this letter finds you well
I’m sorry
