The Universe Of Excuses
Some people refuse to accept blame;
for any possible wrongdoing;
no matter what; it’s always the same;
even bringing threats of suing.
To a claim of wrong; they give excuses;
they’ve a never ending supply;
claiming innocence to any abuses;
confronted; they often cry.
Why is it; that they won’t accept fault;
do they always believe they’re right;
they consider accusers; guilty of assault;
confronted; they often take flight.
There must be encyclopedias of excuses;
one they’ve read; cover to cover;
some which cover a plethora of abuses;
with volumes for friends, or lovers.
Why is it so difficult to say “I’m sorry”
must your victim, become your prey;
often the innocent, becomes the quarry;
while the guilty ones walk away.
Pride is the reason for most excuses;
for it always precedes the fall;
pride is also a reason for most abuses;
in fact; they’re guilty of all.
Usually, the guilty one, vamooses;
rather than ask others to forgive;
obviously; there’s a universe of excuses;
and that is the place where I live.
