No, silly Billy, I didn't forget about you! I have Crohn's Disease and I was ill this week.
Ponder this:
It fits, but it won’t open the damn door,
No matter how hard I jerk and jiggle the key.
And, yet, you insist that this is the right one
But, take it and try to open the door, you’ll see.
You’ve made a mistake this time,
And I say this with the utmost respect.
You either gave me the “wrong” key
Or this “right” key has a defect.
So spare me the litany of questions
Because I’m frustrated and I’m tired
Yes, I inserted, turned, but it wouldn’t open
Not that much thought was required.
It’s clear I’m not getting far here,
So, I’ll go back, on my own, and try once more.
Because you’re wrong – there’s a problem with this key
I think I tried the right door.
