Competition

To be better
But really
Better than.

My dad still says boy
Even for Obama or King
Or his dentist.
Still boys.

He had too many brothers
So it is hard-wired, soldered in cold



He doesn't have to strive
He is old now for ambition

Anything different works as well
Shia or Sikhs across the world
Anything away
The other football team
Homosexuals especially
What is poorer or
The wrong stripe on a uniform

Stupid me
Taking Jesus at his word
Thought there was no shame
In being least

With nothing to show
