Leadership




One of the best paradoxes of leadership is a leader's need to be both stubborn and open-minded. A leader must insist on sticking to the vision and stay on course to the destination. But he must be open-minded during the process. Simon Sinek

Those Words, That Voice

When only those words,
that voice will make everything better,
why is it so hard to find?

Pain-tidote

I need an antidote, as I float on a sea of pain, the urge comes like rain in a bottle of poison fit for a king...make my ears ring and my tongue bitter, no fitter than fatback in a time rack pulling every limb into orbit, the stars and sky, blackness in the rye...the catcher's in the light, calling me I might, when time's run out and it hurts for the greater, and it's sifted me in bits from a lover to a hater. A bullet on a dime, pushing back to the time when a step was free, no need for a key for a skeleton no matter, somehow I got fatter. I grow tired with weakness, no more derbies or preakness just hold me my friend... don't let go 'til the end.

Lump Sum

Working like a slave, trying to beat the grave until the lump sum doth come. I rise to the occasion for the pen I do push, climbing and fighting sometimes I fall on my tush but there's plenty of cush and I trudge on beyond the gray skies there is blue but somewhere over the rainbow isn't true unless you lick the monkey that flies into a spider's web with an ebb tide that overtaketh go write until you maketh and submission is key, must I flee to the sea that swells with sunshine and tastes like moonshine in a dime's fancy feast, call the priest before my last breath's been had, I scream from my lungs when will it finally come.....
                                                                                                    .....that promised lump sum?
