Culpability

I beg forbearance from you all
For every single time I've been
A little mean, a little small,
Obsessed, perhaps, with will to win,
Unkind, irate, beneath the man
That we all know I ought to be,
Less empathetic than I can
Or even should have been, easy
To anger, slow to be at peace,
Scornful of others, self-concerned,
Oozing my own selfish grease,
Uncaring who or what was burned
When I was hot. I'm sorry, too,
For every time that I hurt you.
