When I started
college
I chose
to study business
thinking it was
what I wanted

I thought that
entrepreneurship
was a skill and
a task that
I was up
for

but if I could
go back
and choose
again
I would choose
English,

oh
sweet
English

I think English
Is nobler
Than that of
business
at least in
my
eyes

I found that business
was not authentic,
and more so
it was not right
with my soul

English allowed me
to think
and to observe the world
as I should
and comment about
what I saw
and what others
saw,
and what others
felt
English allowed me
to take note
of those talking
no matter how big
or small their voice was

it helped me learn that
this world is big
and I am small

English is patient,
and kind
while business was
anything but

business taught me
falsely,
that I am bigger
than I am

business is forceful,
business is savage,
and business is controlling
and business does not listen
to anyone
but to
those with
the loudest voice

I think it is
noble
to admire life
and all her
blemishes and faults
rather than to
take control
of
her

rather than snatching
her by her
arms
only to ravage
and **** in the hopes
of my own
good fortune
at the disregard
of others
