Almost

I have always been an Almost Almost handsome almost ugly almost a genius almost a fool almost very good almost very bad almost successful almost a failure often an ‘also ran’ I guess most of us can tick all those boxes I figure it’s not so bad to be an ‘almost’ better than being something you can never live up to better to be free of someone else’s label much better to make a goofy grin in a 2-way mirror and wink

I'm sure most are a load of contradictions. The word almost could be substituted with potential - then it's what you are born with and a bit of something you add to it. You can fluctuation between the two then depending on the mood and the company. Interesting poem
