no matter how much
i plead with the universe
it insists that i must exercise some patience
patience shmatience
i do what i want
hear that
my dear universe
you dont control anything
i stamp my foot proudly
arms crossed
that smug smile painted on my face
but when i turn to walk away
theres gum stuck to my shoe
thanks universe
for bringing me back down
when i become puffed up
with pride
