Regret
Is a word I very easily
Associate with you.

You make
Transformation for Jekyll to Hyde
Seem easy to do.

I remembered
Your tough skin and assumed
The same would be true.

Foolish me.
My mistake. You are not
The same you.

A sign
Should be posted on you:
"Handle with care."

Forgive me.
How thoughtlessly I
Breathed your air.

You pick
And find existence in your presence
An infraction.

But label
"Oversensitive" those offended
With your action.

Goodness me.
Dare the undeserving
Look upon your divinity?

Your world.
I just live in it.
How insensitive of me.
