77/365 - Queve

 


They said to stand
right here
and take my place
in line
They said to just
be patient
it would be my turn
in time
They said not to
worry
There is plenty to
go around
They said not to
make a fuss
They said to
just calm down
But the line just
keeps getting longer
Not just behind
but in front
People keep
sneaking ahead
Why do they 
get to cut
But I remain composed
watching this unfold
still believing
I'll get my share
if I do
what I'm told
But as time
dwindles on
It all becomes quite clear
that I'll be left
all alone
still just waiting
here
