I apologize when I have been proven wrong
But SHE wants to hear the 2 words over, and over and over again
I'M SORRY baby
all the while, reiterating, repeating, and reviewing, over and over and over again
I could probably end the argument and bad blood if I would just give in, and apologize
...but seventeen times, really?
And then another argument grows up around the original, like an ambitious weed
Every now and then, like a sports commentator, she covers what we are arguing about as well as giving a play-by-play, for example: "He just rolled his eyes...this is an evident response to disrespect, before his mouth opens, she prepares a response
Q: "Honey, why do you desire a dozen apologies?"
A: "You're an asshole, do you know that?"
Another tool in the box is to pose and pass a question in place of an answer
and she says more with her eyes than a million words
I, unmoved, stand like a cactus
"Give me a hug!" I yell.
