Looking For More Obstacles Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

It's not that my problems are 'that' overwhelming,
I can not tackle them to handle.
It's their relatives...
Annoyance and aggravation,
That seem to join in with 'their' friends...
Doubt and frustration,
Always with them...
To make my problems appear,
Much bigger than they actually are.

And I can't seem to shake loose,
The attention I give to the looking for more obstacles...
That are not yet there.
And somehow I become disappointed.
There is a need I have to create them.
