Lesson

Each moment of failure
Births new moments of clarity
Only if wisdom prevails
Else opportunities are wasted

I was thinking about failure and how often you can take a failure, turn it on its head, and make it a learning experience. Lesson was written to try to address that thought, but I don’t think that I did very well with it. I think it’s safe to say that Lesson is the least favorite of my poems, but then again, it does drive me to be better.
