If APOLOGIES Had A Fifth Gear

_______________________________________________________________________________________________

If 

APOLOGIES

had a fifth gear,

this is what

you need to hear:

 

I'd downhill drive

a

Mini-Cooper

then

 get down 

on my knees

shouting fifty times

Mea Culpa

!!!

Because

I blasted that many

people

from Mr. CarPeo's

peephole

an "urgent" message

too easy to misconstrue

!!!

 

Now

I need to be heard

from hell to heaven

from here to 7/11

screaming

 

 Mrs. CarPeo,

I apologize 

to YOU 

***
