Ender's Game

That gate is down. So orient yourself
As if that gate were down, and not in front;
Flash-freeze your legs to make a shielding shelf,
And push off your position with a grunt:
They cannot hit you, and you will fly past
Down towards the gate. Think differently, think fast;
Don't let yourself apply the lessons learned
One place too strictly to another, for
If you do that, you're likely to be burned
By someone else who thought about it more.
A harder problem means a harder task,
But not impossible, if you think right;
It's critical to think of what to ask:
The better thinker has the greater might.
