I'm Sorry I Slept With Your Sister

I'm not really.
I only said it to make you feel better,
And because I'd feel bad if you started a fight and I had to kick your ass too.

Even that night after I said sorry,
When we all got drunk and you passed out - we did it again.
Twice. Once in the same room.

Perhaps I wouldn't have if you hadn't tried to get involved.
She is after all, a fully consenting adult.
And she called you a stupid cunt, for getting involved.
But you ignited my vindictive streak.

I didn't really want to sleep with her again. But I did.
And it's her I feel bad for.

I can sometimes shock myself with my hypocrisy and rules made for my own private games - but at least I can admit them to myself.
Show me a better example of how to live and perhaps I'll learn.
But there aren't that many around.

'He who only learns from himself has a fool for a master.' Indeed.
And so much for all that.

    this made me laugh in a nervous kind of way... like I'm not sure if its funny or not. This poem is malicious in the extreme. I kind of like it :)
    "I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"

    was it size or lack of stamina?

    What a drole, original response friend....
    If indeed either either of the factors you outlined were, in fact, in any way pertinent, do you really think I'd be feeling sorry for her?
    You really haven't thought this through have you....

    Using people to get back at someone else is never a good way of doing things.
    Minor nuances of conscience and regret often coming to the fore....

    Thanks Jeremy....I think all too often people are not willing to ask questions of themselves - the reasons for acting in the ways they do when a darker side of their nature comes to the surface...I'm willing to do that.

    Or what triggers these actions/reactions....

    Yes, its probably a little twisted and malicious - but then there is malice everywhere you look, if you choose to look hard enough - it takes many forms and peace, love and happiness can only do so much to camouflage it...Yet we still try to paper the cracks...

    Indeed, an admirable existentialist argument.
    As a good man named Sartre once said: 'Hell is other people'.

    As disinclined as I am to enter into dialogue with anyone who bastardises in the English language in such a manner, i'm willing to reply for one reason.

    That is - that quote was to back up YOUR SENTIMENT, I said it was an admirable argument, I never maintained that it was my position...Therefore investiture of faith in that quote - should you choose to - is solely yours....

    Spin, spin, spin, fall over.

  • i don't think there's a 'stupid fuck' amendment, but i could be wrong. if i recall, it's some obscure 20th century lyric referencing a psychiatric professional.

    however, i'm having a really good time, alex.

    Can't argue with Frank's raison d'etre...
    Unless it is, in fact, a quote...:)

    Well, at least Mommy agrees, and lets face it - she knows best.

    You win Biscuits. Loads. Sorry - cookies....

    I am a tomato, ripening in a greenhouse
    from green to orange to red I go
    from looking sick to embarrased is how I show
    And then I get picked and ate.
