Disappointed: when things don't go the way you hoped, sentence 5

Disappointment comes in many shapes: a burnt cake, a band that plays too fast, a cancelled holiday, a drawing not chosen, a disallowed goal; it usually shrinks over days, and it shrinks faster when you name it, laugh where you can, and see what can still be done.

Who acts: Disappointment, band, you · What happens: come, play, cancel, not choose, disallow, shrink · To what, where: many shapes, drawing, Disappointment · Speech: someone speaks here
