Is it the goal

The benefit

Or the cost

That defines

A movement

An aim

To one, it is the casualties

The losses

To another, it is the gains

Things acquired

Real or not

True or false

Stories written

Morals or achievements

Losses just steppingstones

Up to gold

Or winnings just material objects

Shiny pieces and labels

Choices to be made

Can success be without hardship?

Do others’ losses really matter?

Choose

The ends or the means
