Describe patience in concrete sensory detail
Patience is a clenching of your chest
as time goes on, followed by a calming of the nerves from the top of your head
downward. At first, the whole thing can
be unbearably painful, a pinching in the sides of your arms as the thing you
want is out of your reach. Tolerance
builds, however, and with time and repetition, the pinching dies down. Perhaps it even goes away. I wouldn’t know. I’m not very patient.
Other staples of the early onsets
include a vibrating in the toes, one that no one can be sure if it’s
intentional or reflex. After all, one is
apt to pace when they’re impatient… oh dear.
I’ve spent this paragraph talking about how impatience feels rather than
patience. Have I been doing that this
whole time?
