spot on

patience is a virtue
so i'm told
and yet
it's to this truth i hold

the only thing
you've got
is this moment
on the spot

spot on i am
agreed?
tomorrow is never
guaranteed

yesterday is gone
and by noon so is the dawn
the spotlight of now
shift at each moment's bow

a virtue
patience may be
but not one
obtained by me

it's irrelevant
i've found
as it's to the moment
that i am bound

it's there that i reside
with no need
to run or hide

there's so much
to gain
in each moment
we maintain

so wait
i won't
and regret
i don't

virtuous
is it not?
to give it
all you've got
in the moment
on the spot
