I find it hard
to accept changes
I am not responsible for.

So many things
remain out of my control:
– government policy
– the cost of butter
   or blue jeans
– my allotted Scrabble tiles
– the weather

I cannot be held accountable
to actions not of my control.

It is not my intention
to be difficult.

I find it hard
to accept responsibility
for even my own changes.
