Insufferable

Someone smart 
told me yesterday
you never really 

know the meaning 
of a word until
you meet

someone or
something 
that fits the word

perfectly and then 
the word becomes
a catamount leaping

into your mind.
I didn’t agree
until yesterday

when I met you.
Odds are you feel
the same way too.
