Fail Better Than the Best

Nothing is more anathema to our times
than a phrase that was still second nature
just five minutes ago:
May the best man win
 
To understand everything we’ve lost
you’ll need to make sense of the phrase
on the shoulders of another:
Always a bridesmaid, never a bride
 
For when the “best man” wins
the groom is wedded to defeat
 
Why, pray tell, should you seek defeat
as your life partner?
 
Because you can never win
But you can win for losing
