Failure Poems
FAILURE
by Tanisha Grover
Let's talk about it,
Let's undergo through it,
Let's counterreason it,
Let's acknowledge it,
Let's not bound to it,
Let's not be scared of it,
Let's not overthink it,
Let's not allow it to demolish our dreams,

I thought
by Abasiama Udom
I thought I failed
My heart believed it
I knew I was a failure
my lips told of it
I am a failure.

the dogs even -
at my voice

Oh! With What Unspeakable Anguish
by Carl Halling
Oh! With what unspeakable anguish
Do I regret the vocation
I came so close

The cosmos
For a midnight

by Julian Licht
Despondently, he surveys his lost kingdom
Deep in his throne high on the bluff
Daring angels, covered in wings and wheels and eyes

Demons
by David Dulzaides
Reverberating imperfections shade the glimmer of hope,
While the smell of death dilutes the billowing smoke.

Why do we continue this game,
What’s with this unbridled persistence?
A blessing or a curse we shall never know,
In this bias world we live in we reap what we sow.
