Choosing And Losing
There is a game of life,
And there's a game of play.
Best of seven need not
Rise as smooth as leaven.
Not every 'all-out attack'
Results in a come-back.
To some, every game is 'a must-win'.
For others, now and then is ok.
Some of us play "to win".
Others play 'not to lose".
We must play by the rules.
And rule # 1 is to choose.
