Win or Lose

Win or lose
You choose
Makes no difference
Unless gives reference
Keeping score
Such a bore

Competition
A supposition
That to compete is good
To build selfhood
Number one
Is it fun?

Let’s try another path
Please don’t laugh
Share your talents
To maintain balance
Increase creativity
With sensitivity

Ego aside
You decide
What’s more important
Any given moment
Compete or collaborate
Which one overrated?

Fascinating rhyming you did, such as lose/choose, difference/reference, good/selfhood, one/fun..., I'm a Taiwanese( was raised up by an old soldier Father from Chinese ), you know that, we have a lots rhyming poems....
