Complaining

It’s ok
to complain.

In fact,
it can be healthy.

Except,
complain to someone
with skills.

The skills to summarize your complaint
far more succinctly
than you could
alone.

The skills to organize your complaint
far more clearly
than you could
alone.

The skills to guide your complaint
toward a resolution
you couldn’t reach
alone.

May we neither waste our complaint
on people who lack
such skills.

Nor leave such people frustrated
for lacking
such skills.
