You thought I was abducted by aliens didn't you? Well you are wrong. I was just busy (lazy). But I'm back (shrill screams of terror). Enjoy. Hope it's as good as before and such. I'm probably going to end this soon because there IS such thing as too much of a moderately okay thing. So if anyone has any grand finale idea, please share. And if I ever get to writing the end, I will try to make it something you will forget (yes I realize there is no not). PS this might look familar (the poem)and if you are smart enough to figure out where it was from I'll give you a mental high-five.

Part 14- Some People are Good at Writing Poetry About Failure- You're Not One Of Them
You're trying to cheer yourself up by reading about other people's failures. Yea, it's not working. Turns out that many people are amazing at turning failure stories into successes. They have such a poetic way of writing that can make you feel bad about their lives just because their text messaging was limited to a thousand texts per month.
Honestly, if some lame person can write poetry, you can definitely write something that will touch the heart of at least one person. No, you can't! haven't you learned already! YOU SUCK AT WRITING AND WILL NEVER IN YOUR LIFE HAVE A CHANCE AT A CAREER IN WRITING SO GO AND GET A LIFE AND I CAN MAKE YOU DO THAT BECAUSE I AM THE WRITER OF THIS STORY ABOUT FAILING AT WRITING!
You start typing up the poem.
You now like to rhyme all the time. You wrote something partially good, and people voting, they should.
You know that just because something has rhyming words it doesn't make it a poem right?
You re-read the thing you think is amazing.
Starting is always easy
Finishing is not
But continue forward
Never forget about how much you already fought
This writing world is never fair
It's wrong, messed up
People fan others
Just because their profile says 'sup
You might be amazing
Your writing a true gem
But people do not care
Because it's not written by one of 'them'
Your left in a rut,
You have no idea of what to do
Until you get a positive comment
From a profile picture of a high-top shoe
Votes and comments start coming in
The word starts to spread
You works are called amazing
To writing stardom your lead
Why do you think that a giant fail, like toi, would be good at writing about success? Oh, let me guess. You didn't think did you?! You just want to get votes and be popular. You know what we all want to. Yes, you go cry in the corner.
You wonder why you are the creation of a horrible writer. Hey you know I heard that.
You're getting tired of being judged so you go and look at how many votes you got. You see zero, but you're used to it. You press refresh and see that YOU actually have a vote!
"Omg soo good i can totally relate to it and good rhyming btw :D" lies at the bottom of the page.
You know that the writer is listening so you don't get excited about it and delete the story.
