Whoever Said Patience

whoever said patience

whoever said patience
is a virtue is long
dead – loves
faded, words unsaid,
chances dismissed.
there is a thin line
between earnestness
and political theatre
.

  2. "there is a thin line
    between earnestness
    and political theatre"

    Is it really that thin?

  3. The "earnestness" of elected officials is the very definition of political theatre.
