Gabe does William Carlos Williams, "This is Just to Say"

I wrote these for my poety class.  Enjoy.


1.
I’m sorry I gave
You syphilis
You had better
Get that treated.

Trust me
I let it go
And now I’m
In great pain.

I had a good
Time and so did
You, that’s what
Matters, right?


2.
I smoked the
Last of the crack.
I’m not sorry,
Though.

I think that
You have a
Problem and
Need treatment.

Perhaps you
Should go to
Betty Ford. I hear
It’s nice there.


3.
I have eaten
The paint chips
That were flaking
Off the icebox

They don’t use
Lead paint on
Metal, do they?
I don’t think so...

They went well
With my cereal.
Fruit Loops never
Tasted so good.
