We got an interview notice for May 31st.

Here's what I have just written (you can tell, I'm not too well...)

Days are too slow

Seeing no rush in going by

Stepping one after another

in my life of await

Stress of unknown

makes everything grey and tasteless

The sun, the hot yellow thing

seems too bright and too dull

The wind that was pushing me forward

is blowing against now

Anticipation thick upon the tongue

Words stymied

In the fretful bliss of knowledge

Moments tumbling down

A freefall spiral

Ending in hush,

Gripped hands,

Stark paper.

Aware and blind,

Momentum unceasing

Bear forth to that end.

The worst agonies

Waiting and wonder

Unite in their making of delight.

It starts with love

Many troubles follow

Mittens or gloves

In both cases hollow

Green Card's the goal

Riches await

All search their soul

To find a mate

If we knew how tough

Our journey would be

No one would laugh

Secrectly cry, maybe!

Up until now... gee

Countless delays, waiting in line

K-1, K-2, K-3

Someday you'll be mine!

!

(This poem doesn't make much sense at all, unless you read only the first letter of every line.)
