what is reliable

Living a life in accordance
With the successes of others --
How reliable could that possibly be?

Living a life in accordance
With the failures of others --
How reliable could that possibly be?

It's not my call, but relying on the successes or failures of others, however popular it may be, sounds like a recipe for uncertainty and dis-ease.

Courage and patience and doubt strike me as the tools most likely to winkle out what is reliable.

Applause and catcalls won't cut it.
