One Thousand Decisions

What I love about swimming pools are the fun they create,

what I hate about swimming pools is the everlasting taste of chlorine.  

What I love about playgrounds is the gigantic heaps of fun, 

what I hate about playgrounds is that they’re all made for toddlers.

What I love about cities is their huge communities,

what I hate about cities is the constant scent of fumes 

What I love about factories is the products they make, 

what I hate about factories is the pollution they produce. 

What I love about news is it keeps us up to date,

what I hate about news is it can spread misinformation.

What I love about politics is the one thousand decisions, 

what I hate about politics is the cold bitter corruption.

What I love about nightmares is the relief when it is all over.
