Poetry Month #28: Expectation

Updated: Apr 30, 2020

So close to the end! Inspiration is running low, but I'm still glad I've done this.


 

Expectation

A substitute is found and held

Too tightly due to joy withheld

And leads a path to far more wrong

Than if the first of plans stayed strong

Such meager hope, but nonetheless

A desperate counting on success

If dashed again, one feels allowed

To lash at God, though having bowed

To worship expectation’s face

Expecting circumstantial grace
