                                                                      사과 없어요 / 김이듬

                                                                      아 어쩐다, 
                                                                      다른 게 나왔으니, 
                                                                      주문한 음식보다 비싼 게 나왔으니.

                                                                      아 어쩐다, 
                                                                      짜장면 시켰는데 
                                                                      삼선짜장면이 나왔으니.

                                                                      이봐요, 
                                                                      그냥 짜장면 시켰는데요.

                                                                      아뇨, 
                                                                      손님이 삼선짜장면이라고 말했잖아요.

                                                                      아 어쩐다, 
                                                                      주인을 불러 바꿔 달라고 할까.

                                                                      아 어쩐다, 
                                                                      그러면 이 종업원이 꾸지람 듣겠지.

                                                                      어쩌면 
                                                                      급료에서 삼선짜장면 값만큼 깎이겠지.

                                                                      급기야 
                                                                      쫓겨날지도 몰라.

                                                                      아아 어쩐다, 
                                                                      미안하다고 하면 
                                                                      이대로 먹을 텐데.

                                                                      단무지도 
                                                                      갖다 주지 않고,

                                                                      아아 사과하면 
                                                                      괜찮다고 할 텐데.

                                                                      아아 미안하다 말해서 
                                                                      용서받기는커녕

                                                                      몽땅 뒤집어쓴 
                                                                      적 있는 나로서는,

                                                                      아아, 아아, 
                                                                      싸우기 귀찮아서 
                                                                      잘못했다고 말하고는 
                                                                      제거되고 추방된 나로서는.

                                                                      아아 어쩐다, 
                                                                      쟤 입장을 모르는 바 아니고, 
                                                                      그래 내가 잘못 발음했을지 몰라.

                                                                      아아 어쩐다, 
                                                                      전복도 다진 야채도 싫은데.
