Must Be Nice

Must be nice
to live without
any accountability
never having to
say, "I'm sorry"
because you do
nothing wrong

Must be nice
to live a life
with no feeling
of responsibility
for the impact
you made on
another life

Must be nice
to have no
conscience prick
when you've done
unkind acts
said unkind words
while showing
your hands clean

Must be nice
to have those
clever excuses
at the ready
covering all
your bases
leaving your mark
but you were
never here
