I’ve been reading Lightning Paths by Kyle Vaughn and participating in the daily writing exercises. Today’s challenge is to write a poem that is the opposite of the Resume and Part of Me poems of the past two days. Instead of defining ourselves through our experiences, this poem calls to define ourselves by what we are not.
Lack of Tact Apparently, my tendency to tell the truth means I'm "not tactful"

Well, that’s a trait we share, then. I wrote about my struggles in that department last month, but maybe your situation is just that some people are uncomfortable with truth. In any case, all of your readers know that you have a way with words.

You made me laugh out loud! thank you! I have the opposite struggle. Is it possible to have too much tact and never share what I’m really thinking!

I was that way before I turned 50. It’s been downhill on the tact ever since… 😂 I wish I could have a double dose of tact. But I open my mouth and…well, here we are….

Kim,
I may have told you how O lack tact. Try as I might, I never get being tactful quite right. Your poem today makes me feel seen!
