it isn’t the first one
I’ve ever gotten
certainly,
not the last
hell, I’ve even been
rejected by these people
before
just at a much earlier
and less shameful
stage
but it still hurts,
those words
“we’re sorry
we’re sure you did your best
better luck next time
there’s no shame in this
again, we’re sorry”
“but you’ll not be moving
on”
sweet ********
to make the medicine
go down
that awful elixir of
you ****
sometimes they’re wrong,
sure,
but most of the time
they’re not
most of us aren’t worth
**** and our whole society
is built around telling us
that we’re not
********
to hide the
********
