She’ll never slice me,
squeeze, or zest me, if you just
sketch me a sweet face.

Open Apology to a Word I Have Abused, in 5/7/5 Form (a persona poem)

I have to admit
I’ve been syllabically
abusive to you.
I may call you poem
or po-em, depending on
my need at the time,
not even giving
thought to how this makes you feel.
Please forgive me, poem.
And please understand
this earnest apology
stated at this time
will remain sincere
whether at any time I
choose po-em, or poem.
