The Patience of God



I’ve never much liked to wait
For the things that stop me from moving,
Without sufficient information to proceed
Towards the desired end.
Which is to say I pretty much
Don’t like the limitations
Of the human condition.
I don’t think I’d like
The omniscience of God, either,
Knowing everything,
Living without surprise.
I don’t know how God does it,
Keeps from being bored to death
Dealing with billions of us
Making the same mistake
Over and over again?
