In any case you knew you didn’t come close to
winning the debate, and if it’s relevant, that’s a
given in this contemporaneity; this one’s where
equal has a new meaning & isn’t about sharing
spoils of victory in an unabashed and unselfish
celebration - far from it; it is actually affirmation
The Winner Takes All, with long-lived propriety.
We’ve never been truly free of it and that’s not
Just on occasion of being in the Winner’s seat;
there’s evidence defeat marks being there’s in
creditworthy consensus of a plus - as much of
a participant as the celebrant - & such sharing
is what ‘being equal’ has come to mean within
th’ debate miserere of being a party to it again
