Trouble with Tenacity


Trouble with Tenacity

trouble with tenacity is;
it’s tameless;
talkative;
takes you to task;
and it
trumps everything;


trouble with tenacity is;
it tears with its talons;
taunts with its teeth;
taints everything;
and it
takes every bit of your time.


trouble with tenacity is;
it’s tediously intangible;
taxes intuition;
and it
tortures the heart.


trouble with tenacity is;
it’s terribly tumultuous;
tremendously irritating;
and it's
tyrannically tempestuous.


trouble with tenacity is;
it tangles the tapestry;
and it
tarnishes everything it touches.
