The Rise of Expectations

You say expectations are necessary?

Lord, I wonder what you have learned

Reading all those books

Listening to preachers

Acting like a monk yourself

Those words of yours

Reinstate how worldly you are

Oddly, you should have realised that

Always claiming that you are all-knowing

Educating yourself in the mysteries

But to think that

Would be my expectation of you

So I roll my eyes

And set away into my own world

Expecting nothing of you

For what can you give me anyway?

For I have everything I need

And it’s His/Her will

To decide

If I get more

Or not.
