SOME KIND OF REDEMPTION

long defeated

in order to learn

the mercy is

in the downfall


we praise failure

as a truth

to teach how

one is to handle


the ascent

we succeed to

the measure by which

we acknowledge


our wrong

in the first place

but that requires

a patience and stillness


of nerve unheard of

in the unsparked soul

but needed to know

how the best one fails


is the measure how one succeeds
