Exasperation Is - -

.


When you're pestered 
        by a glib insurance dude
and you wanna be alone 
        without being rude.

When from cultic lunatics 
       there's no way out at all
and they push you against 
       your will against the wall.

When every corner you turn 
       leads to a dead end
as you try to flee from tax 
       collectors, my friend.

When you're chased by your 
       most dreaded creditors
and their shadows close in 
       on you inside elevators.

Examples are countless, don't 
       know how long the list is,
but more or less that's what 
       exasperation is!
