Do you lead so that your people fit in or stand out? Are you expecting them to ‘toe the line’ or are you willing to let them shine? Consider this

I have no clique, I fit perfectly

then don’t fit, I belong where

logic and poetry lie side by side

I’m the space

between verses, the punctuation

and alliteration. I’m the bigger picture

of scientific discipline

I’m the beginning, the opportunity

the proof, the indisputable

evidence that outliers succeed

through difference.

Chaos and creativity collide

in my personality,

I am in between

the wave and the element

both a part and the whole

the thought and the sentiment

I am the horse that bolted

and the stable gate.

The opportunity missed

the opportunity taken,

the opportunity lying in wait.
