failure.

Jeanna, it sounds like me, except for the bikini. Although the poem might look sad, it actually has an underlying sense of hope. No failure is ever 100%, only not getting up is. And yes, some days I feel like that too. Gosh, haven't we all?

It reads like a really great opening to a really great novel. A hell of a good line.
