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!

we are so much alike, Ilene. I abhor waiting. I always try to have something with me to occupy my time if forced to wait and I have written poems on having to wait and how much I hate it. GOOD ONE.

Self depricating indignation reflecting all you see. Mirror images that seem so scary, imagine if your me. I'll stay here in my little world of peace and agitation. See, it depends on personal perspective. It's really a big nation.
