So maybe you’re not the fuckup we thought you were.
Maybe you’ve got more on the ball
than all previous evidence suggested.
Possibly you’re capable
of success on a level we hadn’t imagined:
any.

It seems like some congratulations
might be in order
and you could be deserving
of some sort of a toast.
Unless there’s a way
that your accomplishments today
and this week
and this month
and… really?
It’s been six weeks now?
Wow!
Well, is there any way
that this run of achievements of yours
could they still be in jealousy?
Is there any way that you could still mess it up?

All right then!
To you,
and all you’ve done
and all you will continue to –
and there it is.
Every cloud has a silver lining.
And you, apparently,
are the inverse.
If there is something that can go wrong
it can be found
by you.

Well done, that.
