Dear (Sir or Madam,)
After (careful) consideration,
We (regret) to inform you that you have not been (selected,)
We have decided to (pursue other candidates,)
We carefully regret your application,
(Honestly, you should have known,)
We regret (your decision,)
(You chose this life, no?)
(Why did you fail again?)
(The fear? The anxiety? The dread?)
(You dared to deign yourself worthy?)
(You decided to not plan ahead,)
(You were never able to plan ahead)
(You didn't plan to live past 12)
(Your career was a stillborn)
(It was never gonna hatch)
We have decided to leave you,
No paths, no forwards, no advance
Do not pass go, you will receive nothing,
You never put effort to anything,
We regret (you,)
(Were you not informed that you'll never be enough?)
(Careful, dear.)
(You can't fall from the sky icarus,)
(Your father never had the time to build the wings for either of you,)
(Never had the tools, the knowledge,)
(By your lazy, overworked hands, you are condemned,)
(By your ragged breath, the sweat filled brow, and the dirt under your nails,)
(By the rough in your gut, the grit under your tongue, and the grease in your veins,)
(You are to be your own minotaur,)
(Trapped, cannibalistic, vile)
(You can rot yourself away,)
(Pursuing anything that crosses your path,)
(Chewing through lives that could've been yours,)
(Hoping for answers in the marrow of their bones)
Dear(est),
(That wasn't a very good choice, was it?)
We do hope you understand.
Regards,
(A life not made for you)
