Faillite. Poem by Michael Walker
Faillite.
Comme la bave
dans
un reservoir stagnant
son couleur vert
devenant plus fonce
de la lime
a l'emeraude
une fleuraison
humide et froide
mais moins
ephemere que n'est
le succes
ordinairement.

My experience of failure tallies with this poem. Failure is long-lasting, while success is fleeting. Life is always moving between the poles of success and failure, in my experience.
