it's amazing how sometimes
doesn't matter how much effort
you've put into something

it
doesn't
work

your teeth can feel
the powerlessness

like someone's accusing you of something
you haven't even done
and you are sure about it
because you've dedicated weeks and months
doing just the opposite
in order for that thing to become beautiful

that's when
they accuse you anyway
that's when
it becomes ugly
