For me 'failure' is a bad word.
So even though I don't succeed,
My saying 'failure' is not heard,
Not just yet a success indeed.
But though not saying 'failure, ' I
Knew I did fail lots and did hurt,
But then felt better thinking why
Not write a book as an expert
On how to fail but not say such.
What a perfect project for me!
On 'failure' I could write so much.
A best seller my book should be.
The book failed to sell, so I guess
My writing it was a success.
