DEAR R PROJECT: SORRY

sorry

dear r,

i want to tell you i am sorry

not because i didn’t intend to
tell you these paper mache thoughts
in streaming sexual varicose voices
their rich palate creeping forward on lascivious tongue

its not that

this is not a poem
its not a foreplay of words
or the clever scheming of diagrammed verbs

this is to tell you that
i’m sometimes puerile and reckless
i’m sometimes careless in thought
but i could not disrespect intimate action

i am sorry
