You Know What I Hate?
A few months ago I started exploring my creativity. I’ve written keynote speeches, created 2-3 months worth of blog ideas, brainstormed white papers, and I’ve crafted poetry on everything from Fear to identifying with yourself. Since I plan on writing a heavier article on Saturday I decided to share a poem I created on 8/14/2007 called “You Know What I Hate?”. Enjoy 
You Know What I Hate?
You know what I hate?
The IDEA of despising someone based on their skin
Because of their race
You know what I hate?
The idea of telling kids they’re slow
Instead of helping them be great
You know what makes my stomach turn?
Wasted creativity and genius
Locked away in an urn
You want to know what makes my blood boil?
The sickening lack of trustworthiness in our society
Is ANYBODY loyal??
You know what shakes me to the core?
Constant bickering, moaning, and shadiness
I can’t take it anymore
You want to know what I despise?
The lack of hunger, vigor, and enthusiasm
I see in a broken man’s eyes
I’ll tell you what really grinds my gears
Good, truthful information often goes in one
And comes right out the other ear
You know what really turns me off?
This world is so hard
Yet our training is so soft
You know what makes me throw a fit?
Theres a fire inside us all
Most are barely even lit!!

That’s a great poem. I love this kind of writing - it encourages people to think of the possibility of something greater.

Work hard, LOVE yourself!
