The Mask of Impatience


Impatience comes from
living in the future
instead of the present moment.

It is one of the masks
fear wears to trick us
into thinking we are not afraid.

Imp/Patience

The imp pops out of
The ink bottle, a black spot
That stains patience with
A three quarter drop of blood
Lynched from the constitution.
