I did my best, I put my all.
I did not get results I sought.
Is this success? Or did I fail?
I did not do the best I could.
I got results regardless, though.
Is this success? Or did I fail?
If I’m the only one to say
Whether success or failure came,
What if I call it all success?
Is that allowed? Who gets to say?
“Successful”, claims media
Whoever brings them eyeballs new.
Of course, there is a pleasure too
In bringing down “successful” folk.
The eyeballs love the guillotine.
