winners

Applauding winners
Celebrating winning
Creating ‘winningness’…

The winners of this year
Past winners
Part winners…

But…
Who IS a winner?

The receiver
The achiever
The perceiver…

The one who got?
The one who fought?
The one who sought?

But
Who ISNT a winner?

WE discovered nimbleness in our toes
The highest mountain pass came to US-close
WE felt the destitute’s woes…

Didn’t we all reestablish the achievable?
Didn’t we reconfigure the attainable?
We certainly redefined the applaudable.

Weren’t we ALL celebrated?
Weren’t we ALL elevated?
Werent we all related?

Nobody is perfect we had thought
But that winwin evening
When excellence outdid itself
And spirits chimed in unison
Perfection was in everything…
