My Working Style - A Poem
Also posted on my LiveJournal account, this poem expresses how I like to learn and work.
And so begins my next attempt
It's so much harder than it looks
I only wish to test myself
I'm bored and wish to learn from books
The information that I like
Is often very detailed and
I like to talk and write in depth
In case you do not understand
I sometimes try to learn it all
It's fun, it's almost like a game
I get upset when efforts fail
And then I start to hand out blame
I want to try my very best
In all that I might learn about
Perfectionism helps a lot
I want to make my work stand out
I may look gormless when I think
Of things I want to say or write
Appearing blank is common when
My brain is busy, day and night
My information processing
Is slow at best, I need to find
Some extra time to organise
My thoughts to paper from my mind
I have to read a sentence twice
Or more to fully take it in
My short term working memory
Prefers to send things to the bin
I often find my final draft
Is also the original
The work is mostly in my head
So changes will be minimal
I'm not the brightest person and
I have an awful lot to learn
I know it didn't work before
But now I want another turn
