There isn’t much that now you can do
So have a smoke and melt in the night dew
Listen to the tick tock of your pocket clock
Wondering if naught is all, all things come to.
Or probably you can have a beer
And look at your despicable self with a sneer
Mediocre you, always knew,
My efforts were impotent, there or here.
So sip the whiskey, soda and scotch
Sit alone on the backside porch
Lo and Behold! As the truth be told
“You were always useless”, Says the watch.


Sorry to hear that
You were always one of the most enthusiastic bloggers, inspiring others. I also heard the bad news from Oxford, though I never believe my efforts were “useless”, neither were yours.
Next year? Perhaps we’ll go together this time?
U remember the spider story. How it falls again and again but ultimately reaches its destination. Its a challenge to compete against the best and more experienced people. So don’t loose ur self confidence just because of one rejection. Probably they don’t have the ability to judge correctly. If the guy who interviewed u cud not understand ur passion, hard work, dedication and talent; then its he who has made a mistake and not u.
Thank you for your kind words. I’ll be back to my normal self in some time.
