sorry, not sorry :P

inspired by a poem i heard on this american life (#354, mistakes were made)

apparently many-a-peoplePoet have rewritten it so I gave it a go

This Is Just To Say

BY WILLIAMS CARLOS WILLIAMS
 
I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
 
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast
 
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold

//

I have woken
you from
your slumber
in the night
 
of which
you were probably
repairing
the old noggin
 
Forgive me
you looked so sweet
so content
and too comfortable
