do it for the results

it is possible that
   humans are meant to
   compete. to charge into the
   world. to prove who’s
   best. to draw lines on the
   earth. to take and keep what
   one can for
   one’s self.

   after all
   there’s nothing bigger than a
   successful self or
   smaller than (every one else) a
   failure.

   is there?

or may be we’re meant
   to behave gently &
   sweetly & calmly
   like the temperate
   weather we
   wish we had
   back.
