I CONFESS

I confess
my greatest sin
it will explain
the state I'm in
an ego so
gargantuan
I don't take care
of anyone

I go about
my daily bread
without a thought
nought is said
others stay
emaciated
but my appetite
is sated

I did nothing
hurt no one
cut no flesh
broke no bone
I didn't say
a single word
no criticism
ever heard

How many
Hail Marys
will it take
to expatiate
this crime
of nought
equaling
the holocaust?

Séan ... This is about me..please don't put me in a pulpit!

I put you under a pedestal.
