The Equation of Problem Solving

A short and mysterious metaphoric speech

By Brittany LemmenPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I see not what I want to be, but only what I have been.

The life I chose to live could be who I am now,

The person I can become seems like a ghostly figure of my imagination.

A product of reality,

The equation stems from my feet and goes above my head

The solution is set in the middle of me;

My heart and soul being.

Never-the-less

I don't doubt the power of creation.

To begin solving the matter is the challenge,

Being stuck on the same problem keeps me from moving on to the next.

Find the multiple solutions,

Or be dead set on one way of being and one single answer.

They say curiosity killed the cat

But cats have nine lives so I hear,

Jump feet in or head first.
