WaiTiNg

 Once again l am contenplating
Why is their yet another delay
Though l should be anticipating
Thier will always be some dismay

Perhaps now l should be celebrating
The possibility of come what may
Though still finding it so frustrating
As this here not where l want to stay

As at these times it is so agrovating
When time seems to be slipping away
But seems the story of my life waiting
Looks like l will be here till dooms day


Originaly written 2014 just changed pattern

WAIT, no, you wait ... no one likes it I know this feeling especially in relation to gov't bs- driver's license/DMV, social security admin - both can make me feel like herded cattle. A cow that has no assurance of leaving with success, a cow who may have to return. Waiting for love, too ('waiting' 'isn't where hearts want to be.') Take care not to throw every waiting moment away bitching or you may grow just that, more bitching. As a writer, you may know that words have the power to manifest.
