I Can't Join The Group

But I Can Be A Guest;
Maybe Rarely
Maybe Not,

I Guess.

I Can/
Can't...

I Mean, I Can't Meet
The Standards;
Maybe The One's
You Don’t Demand...

But I Set Them
Somehow, To Be
Beat... And I 
Can't Meet Them!

By Design, Maybe...

And "Who Cares?"
May Be The Correct
Answer! By Default.

Who's Who?

But I Can't 
Join The Group,
So I Won't/Don’t/Can't What Else?

It's Not Rejection...
Just "Unqualified,"
By Very Nature.
