One and Done

There's a piece of cultural rhetoric,
    That has survived both victory and defeat.
As it speaks to a summary unity,
    And a conclusion to become and complete.

With a simple, rhythmic verse it stands alone,
    While reaching wide and distant arenas to apply.
Yet throughout its use it remains unfinished,
    Since its solitary nature won't comply.
