Of These I Have None, by Venus Connelly

Contentment: As I harbor resentment.
Patients: For your lust of temptations.
Persistence: To wait for your assistance.
Tolerance: For your lack of conscious.
Humor: It’s not just rumor.
Respect: As lies I detect.
Resilience: For your ignorance.
Forgiveness: Too great a metamorphoses.
Acceptance: Your presence.
Understanding: For I am not that demanding.
