(Im)patience

Patience was never one of my strengths...

Patience is truly a virtue
Albeit, one I have yet to acquire.

I could never wait to pull out a tooth;
I would yank the thing out with pliers!

Taking turns, or worse- waiting in line,
Are two other things I would scoff.

And, to be terribly blunt,
I still rush to the front
And cut everybody else off!

Ah, yes, patience. It's definitely something
that's been lost to my brain.

Now, don't take me wrong
(My, this poem's getting long!)
It's not something I wish to attain.

I liked this. So true you could be writing about me.

Well done.
