The Art of Leadership

We hugged
and slapped high fives
like it said in the book.

NOW THE VIM THING, I shouted
THE VIM THING? she screamed.
VISION, I shouted
VISION, she screamed.
INSPIRATION, I shouted
INSPIRATION, she screamed.
MOMENTUM, I shouted
MOMENTUM, she screamed.
THAT'S THE VIM THING, I shouted
THE VIM THING, she screamed.

We hugged
and slapped high fives
like it said in the book.

Then my cleaning lady
went back to work.
