A SERIES OF SO CALLED POETRY

2. INTERPRETING FAILURES.


.a failure may mean many things,

anything,...

 

a failure means 

the world has shut its door,

first time , another time or the last time ..

a failure means 

your sweaty time 

has wailed over the 

pendulums for nothing

in the neighbor's eyes ..

a failure may mean(thus)

your neighbor 

need not be a friend, 

not necessarily..

a failure means 

your confident sureness of yourself 

will henceforth be a drunken boast ..

a failure means 

you have to prove again 

to justify your not being a burden..

a failure means 

instructions from all corners 

to refine yourself 

to the standards of contemporary success;

to decipher the TEACHINGS that failure

"imparts"

a failure 

PLAINLY MEANS 

you have not succeeded 

plus or minus reasons or excuses

a failure means 

once again you are lonely...
