 How to Fail Successfully

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.
