i'm all out of sorrys

I reach into my bag
for one more

sorry.
but i'm out.

I used them all up last week
after

commenting on the news.
disagreeing with

people.

I have a new order coming in

though.

a box
of one hundred.

freshly minted sorrys.
ready

to be doled out to the next person
I unintentionally hurt.

insult, or dismiss

as stupid.  sorry.

found that one on the floor.
