From my Song of Myself in March 08

[Posted to Xanga 4/11/11]

Someone once told me
that having your mistakes pointed out to you is a luxury
which you will not receive in the real world—
instead, the door of opportunity will slam in your face.
But I believe that, like every rule,
this statement has exceptions—
the instances where people rise from their ruined lives
like phoenixes, taking on the world
and winning.
In this world,
I will either die young
or become a miracle.
