Day 10: Proper Pep-Talk

For the 'Optimist'

Prepare to fail;
Winning isn’t for everyone.
Prepare to fail.
Perfection is a far off tale.
All expect it, though we know none.  
Be wise, content to be unsung.
Prepare to fail.

(2014)

This is day 10 of my month long Rondelet marathon! As a teenager, I encounter many trying to reach perfection in all it's forms, and, while I understand it to be impossible to achieve, I still notice myself aiming towards the same goal. Thus, I use this poem to ground myself.
