I broke it.
But I wish someone else did --
It's got to be that guy
who used it before me.
Quick! get the superglue
or some sticky tape!
Maybe I can fix the damn thing
before it's found out.
Too late!
A passing witness sees
the two pieces,
"what happened to this?"
Lips flap like a tent
giving way to wind;
words sputter out:
excuses --
useless --
sentences can't come
together, make sense,
fast enough.
I'm caught.
It was me.
I broke it.
