Goonology
"Give me six hours to chop down a tree, I will spend the first four gooning"-Abraham Linchon.
The tree won't fall to random hits.
But gooning finds the perfect bits.
They swing their axe with aimless rage.
I goon in peace, then set the stage.
You chase the goal, but miss the flow.
A gooner knows just when to go.
With gooning first I set the tone.
The final hit is mine alone.
I stare, I loop, I learn the tree.
And then chop it easily.
I don't attack the wood with fear.
I goon until the path is clear.
Some say to strike and never think.
But gooners pause and never sink.
They mock the time I goon alone.
Yet wonder how I break the stone.
Some train with force, some train with fire.
But gooners train with calm desire.
Four hours in, I know it well.
Then one clean hit, then down it fell.
Gooning first is not delay.
It's how we master work and play.
