Failure is truly an art. Nearly every famed individuals today have had to navigate through failure and its obstacles. Henry Ford, for instance, had built his first car without the reverse gear but went on to revolutionize the automobile industry. It is not just imminent personalities that had to go through failure but even us. So I have crafted this poem to showcase the vastness and uncertainty of failure and how to rise above it.

The Anatomy of Failure
Humans rule the face of the earth,
For even beasts we fear not.
We know of everything’s birth,
And pride ourselves on everything here.
But we shudder at the thought of failure,
For we all are servants of this adversity.
Our thoughts whirl altering our behavior,
As Failure proves to be a shared infirmity.
We are afraid of what we do not know,
Though we pretend to be masters of it all.
Our wits do much to flow,
As we attempt to defy everything’s fall.
Across the globe we differ so much,
But we all shudder in the face of failure.
Why do we fear of things as such?
Perhaps it is because we lack valour.
When we cover the entirety of this abode,
Failure has to be experienced.
It has no escape road,
Instead we must endure its variance.
There is no way around it,
But there sure is a way through.
Why do we quit after failure?
Perhaps we blind ourselves to its after view?
By persevering through failure,
We traverse through tough times.
Only after we weather through,
Do we know how to rise and shine.
