Shrugging Off
Some people can shrug off their failures
Or laugh at their feeble attempts,
While others, like me,
Find frustration to be
What an aptitude never exempts.
For when trying to learn a new skill set,
If I find myself really inept,
I get into a funk
With my confidence shrunk
And there’ve even been times I have wept.
Oh, I envy those shrugging-off people
Who poke fun at their silly mistakes,
Though it’s our DNA
Which has made us this way,
So I guess we should cut us some breaks.
