Have Patience

Oh the irony 

Frantically eating a chocolate bar needing the sugar to hit my bloodstream 

While, intensely, I study the left hand of a favorite songwriter

Singing in a red knit cap

During the pandemic 

Have patience 

I need this song in my hands as fast as possible 

I cannot wait

I cannot wait because the same madman who terrified the fuck out of us 6 years ago with virus that kills, today helps the entire world hostage as he gleefully tyiee out his desire to end an entire civilization with the push of the button 

I have no more time to learn this song. I need to play it NOW.

And this, as we spin around in circles on this little globe in the dark, a rocket is circling the moon, visualizing the earth from our the window. We’ve all gone out the window and have forgotten just how precious we are…with our little shoes dangling. I need to tune my strings. I need to scream. I need to remember to have patience. Give it just a little more time. Everything will be all, everything will be alright.
