Changing Character Defects

Changing character defect
Taking time to reflect

laziness is terribly clear
Accept it now, there’s nothing to fear

Get up off that large bum
march to a beat of a different drum!

Turn anger into perseverance 
Allow it another appearance

One that is quiet and calm
No need to set off a bomb

Just sit still and see
A better version of the real me.
