I have been here before,
on the mat.
Stay down and let them count me out,
my heart is breaking.

I have played second fiddle to
kids, noncommittal immigrants,
wanna be rock stars, better dancers,
cheating boss bowls of jello,
and even a cup of tea.

And now I am second runner up!
The winner is........................

No one.

Nobody is actually better in every regard than me..

It's a new low. I think I'll celebrate.
