tain't

'tain't 
with the apostrophes 
is taint in some quite 
shining eyes. Whereas
without, it's plain and pat:
a stain spread through. 
Apologize. For me, 
'tain't either! Either one. 
I guess my standards grew
too hard and far to stoop 
to such fine scales. I lose 
in that, and all such lossy 
fun. I've won, 
and win, 
and run 
so many fails. But I 
ain't half begun.
