Learning to Fail

Learn to fail or fail to learn
Like a brail surface
Fail to see
The details discerning

Your predeterminations
Your conditions, nurtured ways
I may observe failure
With different considerations

How do we learn from mistakes
When we're making their terms
For ourselves
How to tell what hurts or helps

We curtail reason
With frequent leaps
Into the deep end
Derailed careening

With make believe realities
Idealities
Running around chasing 
Your own tail locality

With morality of never being enough
Because you never measure up with
Someone else's
Custom judgments

In actuality no one can
Cut apart
Subparts of right and wrong
Just live with love and heart.
