The Uncertain Game of Patience

-
All preparations done,
Matters taken care of,
All possibilities carefully thought through,
All simulations tested and run...

Then the uncertain game of patience...

The ability to just sit and wait,
That rare faculty of doing nothing,
Cutting yourself off...as intensely as you were jointed,
To not undo the doings in moments of mindless impulse...

This uncertain game of patience...
