Must’ve Misplaced That Mustard Seed? – Promote Yourself

  I keep a vigil by my window for it

  Perhaps it’s stuck in traffic
  Eventually I know that I must face it
  Wouldn’t it go much easier on my own terms?
  I could just go there, though I’d rather not
  But I’ve still a bit of patience left in me albeit the stubborn kind
  Still thinking I might have my own way
  Maybe I should meet it on the outskirts of town
  where the wide open expanse begins
  seems more practical I suppose?
  Yeah, that actually makes more sense
  (how has it happened that things have begun to make any kind of sense?)
  There it is in the distance
  Hasn’t budged a bit
  And they all tell me I’m stubborn!
  Guess I better start hiking
  That mountain’s not comin’ to me anytime soon
  Never heard of a mountain that speaks
  I am terrified…
  But compelled to it nonetheless
  Fearing…
  And…
  Trembling
  What could possibly go wrong?
  In and out…
  over and done with
  put it behind me once and for all
  Well don’t just stand there dumb-founded
  ya’ comin’,
  or not?!
  Dude…really?
  How bad can it be?
