Competition is cool and all
but it needn’t control your everything.
You can live your life
without worrying about
who’s the better lover
the smarter mathematician
the faster taker of public transportation.

These things don’t have to rule your life,
you know.
They haven’t ruled mine
for three weeks now.

Oh. Well,
I don’t care that you kicked this particular monkey off your back two months ago. I’m comfortable with my own accomplishments.
I hope you are, too.
