I Lost My Patience
She lied to me twice this week. No biggie. I still trusted her.
She borrowed my car and wrecked it. Her tale was untrue.
Our friendship is at stake here. I will give her another chance.
If Job can do it I can do it. Right?
She got up in my face and screamed at me for no reason.
I am starting to think maybe there is something wrong.
We have been friends for thirty-two years. I forgive her.
She gets into my child’s face and screams.
That is the last time I plan to ever see her again.
