When it finally all came out
and was nowhere near right,
I tried again.
And it was worse.
So I started over
with countless scratches and
don't sniff around-
it stinks!
Well, all I could do
was begin anew
way of coming at it-
Quit is not a possibility,
cruelly
Failure is my reality
and I see,
this jutting angle
enmeshed in the rest
will work,
once I throw it out
the window.
There's always tomorrow.
