A Knot
If a knot is what you’ve got,
Then it isn’t there for naught;
Such a snag occurs a lot
And solutions must be sought.
Though a glitch may give you pause,
It will get your brain in gear
To find fixes for the flaws
That you wish you disappear.
So the trick is to untangle,
Work around or start again,
But frustration makes you mangle
What you’ve finished up ‘til then.
Thus, whenever you’re confronted
By a knot or glitch or snag,
Keep your temper nicely blunted
And don’t let your spirits sag.
Resolution may be waiting
If you’ve patience, grit and pluck,
Though, of course, there’s no debating
It can’t hurt to have some luck.
