The Uncanny Power of Complaining

	Complaining doesn’t make things better!
            How many times have I heard that?

         So I’m going to complain about that old saw
             ‘Cos complaining jars me awake…

          …activates my libido, rouses my sleeping lion
              energizes me to resolve problems
                   that seemed overwhelming
                        mere moments ago

Inspirational! I'm going to start complaining now! Well, maybe I'll just continue.
