You'Re Making This Too Easy Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You'Re Making This Too Easy



What would you do,
If I apologized for everything said...
To ever offend you?

'You can't do that! '

Why not?

'I look forward to your comments,
I find offensive.
They give me a reason to cringe with hate.
If you took that away from me,
I would have no reason to despise you.'

That makes absolutely no sense at all.

'Look...
What makes sense to you,
To make me re-act senselessly...
Is 'my' need.
Do you understand?
DO YOU?
What about MY needs?
Don't you ever apologize to me, again! '

Uh...
Excuse me for a sec.
God?
You are setting me up for something, huh?
You've GOT to be.
You're making this too easy!
