Stubborn

When I left college, they said I was being stubborn.

When I was leaving home, my Dad said I was stubborn.

When I left my first job, the boss said I was too stubborn.

Well,
I hope they are right.

Because I hate hammocks,
And I don't believe in half days,
Or long weekends.
No.

I will take life as it comes.
I will scratch and claw.
And fight every step of the way.

For I have met fate,
And She can be pretty mean
When she's not in the mood.

So I will collect all those words of discouragement
And make paper rockets out of them.
And fly them in a stong cross wind.

Society has a name for guys like me -

STUBBORN
