failure

this body walking
is not a
fiasco in the making

nor a catastrophe
on the verge
of meeting its own
cataclysm

neither will an upheaval
of you
destroy destiny

if disorder is mine
for the moment

it is mine
until otherwise,

though bedlam comes
it also
goes

and until I say
I have failed,

I shall be
a
success….

and my plans
are...
not to
fail

In our failure
we are learning
in our success
we are yearning
for the promises
given to those who win,
but is victory so sweet?
It is not sweeter still
when won in the face of defeat.

true failure you see
is never trying at all
dishonorable
try with every fiber
no dishonor in failure
