Nathanael O'Reilly #10 Waiting

Waiting

waiting for the ballots
to be counted
waiting for government
to be formed

waiting for charges
to be filed
waiting for justice
to be served

waiting for email
to arrive
waiting for plans
to be finalized

waiting is falling
waiting is drowning
waiting is insomnia
waiting is illness

waiting is stasis
waiting is lacking control
waiting is ceding power to others
waiting is unacceptable

  3. Exactly. I am actually usually a very patient person, but sometimes waiting is unbearable and unacceptable, which is what I wanted to convey.
