A morning visit of a snit.
Surely, you know what I mean.
Someone was not behaving according
to my expectations.
I am sure I had given them the rule list
which included:
Do what you say you will do when you say you will do it.
Ignore the needs of others.
Remember. my time is, after all, the most valuable.
Calm, serene, spiritual me was very put out!
Really!
Where did this impatient, blindsiding, sneaky reaction come
from?
I bite my tongue.
I will not give it a voice.
“You told me an 1 ½ hours ago that….”
Oops!
I bite my tongue again while the snit
carries on unabated inside my head.
Eventually, even I cannot keep a straight face
at its attempt to act like a giant bully
when clearly it is tiny, gnat which
can be quickly extinguished with a swat.
Snit, it, bit, dit, yit,
Alexa, whereforth cometh the snit?
Alexz, whereforth goest the snit.
Snit, it, bit, did, yit.
