Failure and Fiasco

There's a difference between a failure...and a fiasco.
A failure is simply the non-presence of success.
Any fool can accomplish failure.
But a fiasco....
A fiasco is a disaster
of mythic proportions.
A fiasco is a folktale told to others..
that makes other people feel more alive...
because it didn't happen to them.
