Salvaging

One moment does not define your life,
Unless you let it.
As an example, failure serves to inform,
Not leave you indebted,

So that before you get back to where you started,
You must act to reconcile,
Who you wanted to be with what you became,
You were the same all the while.

The trick is not only to learn,
But to reinvent that moment,
So that in retrospect it becomes a genious,
Purposeful move to misrepresent,

That you're not alright,
To get the other side to put down the guard,
To get in that upper-cut,
That otherwise would have been very hard.
