Quick and Deep

I'll avoid the obvious "that's what she said" joke, because I think my mom reads my blog now...

Why do I fail?
Is it because I am weak?
quick to regret?
slow to reply?

perhaps, but...

Failure is not
a stumbling block,
sign to stop,
beginning of saying
"I guess I'd be better off..."

Failure is a sign.
Not a red octagon
but a yellow painted
arrowed line.

I fail because I continue

to try.


(how could I possibly fail otherwise?)

Is it shameful, then, that my mother takes part in That's What She Said jokes?

That's fantastic writing, by the way.
