Failures Square

 Hey there
You have the guts 
To talk, speak, write 
About us?

Yes, dear
We hail from failed 
Marriages, bankruptcy,
We are physically impaired
Age is not on the arrogant side

We're the sheep that's on the
wrong side of the table 

Yet we survive 
Despite the atrocities 
Life imposed on us

We're tired of listening to the successful stories that had
tasted failures, reading them
from the bestsellers shelves

Our stories should be read,
if not for our resilience,
but as examples
not to follow.

We must have a place
in literature, so people
 know how to survive
failures, failing,
notwithstanding.
