Poem
Aaah!.........There you are! Right on time as usual! I can always count on you to appear and be your obnoxious, irritating, obstruction based, challenging self. You seem a bit larger than the last time I encountered you! Have you been working out, or just adding more bricks? When I was choosing my latest endeavor I did wonder when you were going to make yourself known and do what you do so well- create that moment of indecision, that moment of having to decide whether to go right or left around you, tunnel and go beneath you, climb over you, or just like the last time, toughen up, look straight at you and go right through you! You seem to be pretty busy these days popping up in front of any and everyone who wants to accomplish something! I have to give it to you.....you're good! You make some people back off and decide to quit, make some linger not knowing how to approach you, and make others simply chip away at you piece by piece until they either tire and quit, or actually knock you down! Seriously though, there is something enormously gratifying about surmounting you and moving past you! If it wasn't for you a lot us wouldn't know the sweet taste of success, the wondrous feeling of self accomplishment, the power associated with having a strong will, or the joy of "stick-to-it-tiveness" to get to where we want and need to go! I applaud you for providing the challenge that you do, but do know this- our tenacity will overcome you and our spirit will defeat you! Oh, you'll keep showing up at the right moment to provide that test of wills. You'll even have that look of being "Invincible, Undefeatable, Uncompromising and Unforgiving"......... but do know this, "you're going to get knocked down- YOU ARE GOING DOWN!!!" Whatever it takes to either move you completely or go though you absolutely... you're getting out of the way!!! Whatever day and today WILL NOT be your best day! So don't be offended or take it personally, (actually do be offended and take it quite personally) but right now.. I've no time for you, Mr. Brick Wall, Mr. Vision Obstruction, Mr. Dream Destroyer, Mr. Aspiration Annihilator! It is time to go and YES it is personal because I have business to attend to and quite frankly..... YOU ARE IN MY WAY!!! By the way...... I've decided to go through you!!! (you remember, just like the last time!) I don't feel like climbing over you and I am not digging under or going around you! "I'm Going Through......To Get To!" Oh.....you ask- "What am I going to do with this sledgehammer?" IT'S TIME TO GET BUSY! Oh, before I start and before you go.... when you show up the next time and every time after that, expect the same reception as the last time and this time, and henceforth! Ok....Ready...Here we go!!!- SMASH!!!....CRASH!!! "WOW! - I can see right through you now!" Until we meet again...... Later, Mr. Brick Wall!
