a wooden chair called Patience
is keeping me up too late at night
holding me to her
telling me to wait
a few minutes more
it's always a few minutes more with Patience
she calls me Restless of course
Restless-Grasshopper for short
i am always hoping she will call me -
Still-Pond-Lit-With-The-Waxing-Moon
no.
a few minutes more
PLEASE GIVE ME THE WORDS - i beg
they're leaving a lump in my throat
i can't go to bed with a lump in my throat
shh.
said Patience
growl.
said I
things got a little heated and I threatened to change her name
she cowered and then she laughed
I don't know why she laughed
MY-SCAPEGOAT

As always love your words. The pictures is wonderful too my friend. Thanks for your comment on my blog the other day. You'll get there with changing your layouts. And yep it'll coust you big time like I had to strugle with. But in the end it's so worth it. So just go for it girl. Be Patience, sit on that chair and take your time.
