Tis not a poem...

[Angela Harlem]

I am sorry.
I am sorry for America.
I am sorry there is no quick'n'easy solution.
I am sorry there is likely to be no satisfying resolution. Ever.
I am sorry thousands die for lack of food and water.
I am sorry I take education for granted while so many dont have a choice.
I am sorry the Aboriginal people never got an apology from my government.
I am sorry that England didn't shoulder more of the responsibility.
I am sorry the church took the babies of unmarried mothers in the 60's.
I am sorry the hospitals didnt keep records so many could reunite.
I am sorry that dogs and cats have no road sense.
I am sorry that the Berlin wall took so long to come down.
I am sorry I never spent more time with my grandpa before he died.
I am sorry peope are attacked for their views.
I am sorry there is war, oppression, and murder.
I am sorry that not everyone only has the media to inform them, and cannot simply turn off the tv when they've heard enough.
I am sorry we are too quick to judge, to mock, and not quick enough to consider the important things in life.
I am sorry life is too short.
I am sorry that it is my life, but so much of it I cannot change.
