Patience is a virtue, I've discovered
In very short supply, at least for me.
I found that, as a consequence, I hovered
Over my impatience eagerly
When I should have be waiting easily
And letting the annoyance roll right off.
I know that it sounds silly, but I see
These symptoms growing, like the whooping cough,
And even though you may listen and scoff,
I know the way I am, and feel my soul
Covered in impatience I can't doff
Even when that is my explicit goal.
So I just have to live with it: or rather
I must be patient with impatience. Bother.
