Michael, there’s no “I” in “team.”
No, but there is an “I” in “win.”
I used to love playing volleyball.

It was an experiment
In ethics.

Competition
Forces us to ask questions.

Who am I?

There was always a moment--

Take another man’s chance
Or let him fail?

Lose together
Or win alone?

Certain songs--
Pop songs, usually--
Seem like jokes
When I first hear them.

And then I hear them
And hear them
And hear them--

And then
Suddenly
I get it.

This song kicks ass.

Like Milkshake
Or Hey Ya.

But others--

Man.

I just turn off the radio.
