Impatient
Patience is a virtue
Though it’s one that isn’t mine.
I get antsy when I wait
In any kind of line.
I can’t hold my horses
For that leads to agitation,
No matter what the reason
Or surrounding situation.
Type A personality
I think’s the diagnosis.
Ulcers or a heart attack
Is likely the prognosis.
Living in the city, though,
Is where I have to be.
For everywhere I go, I notice
Lunatics like me!
