#Goals

You can be as patient as a predator,
as enduring as an ache,
as effective as the guillotine,
as bold as those who take.

You can be as clever as an ambush,
and as useful as a knife,
as honest as a fist,
but you won't enjoy your life.

Better to be honest as a kitten
and as useful as a pen,
as clever as the solution
missed by other men.

Be bold as sugar maples
and as effective as applause,
as enduring as the ocean
and as patient as a pause.
