If Third Place Passes Second Place What Place Are They In
Each one determined not to finish first
Taking each step leading to the end
But all finish the race
No winners all losers
No spectators no ribbons no medals adourned
Breathless athletes, spurned to the line
That final wisp of humanity
and the last pulse of life
See you at the finishing line
