 Reflection on Rejection

Always throughout my adult life

I've been rejected every time,

In pursuit of finding a wife.

In all truthfulness, I guess I'm

Not a good prospect to become

A husband a wife could trust in.

Unfaithfulness, I do have some,

So gave up trying, to begin

A book on rejection which I

Finished, and copies sent out.

How could a publisher deny,

Rejection expert I am no doubt!

The publishers replied en masse,

All with the same reply, "We'll pass."
