S-O-R-R-Y

Your prose is elegant

As you demonstrate contempt, it's true

And the targets you attack

Mostly deserve a whack from you



Yes, you're entertaining

You fill up the page

Fill it up with your rage



But now there's a doubt

Over the wisdom you hand out in spades

Please tell us which you think

Is the country we should next help invade



What a bloody carnage

You cheered us into

And the others like you



You never wore a uniform

'Less it was a uniform

Of a school or youth organization



But from watching others do

What they would never do

Holds a sad fascination



And now I'm reminded by feelings so strong

Of Bernie Taupin's lyric to Sir Elton's song

Can you say the hardest word?



'Cause you demand apologies

From public figures on their knees

As you invite them to say, "So long"



So let's hear your rendition

Of words of contrition

For getting it so wrong



Would you like to say something?

Would you like to say sorry? Sorry

Sorry, that's S-O-R-R-Y
