A moment's truth

You think yourself better than them, he says, and it's not a question but a statement, because he knows me.

I am smarter. He is stronger. They are beneath the both of us.

Aren't they?

-if i cannot tell myself this lie, prove to myself that it is truth
   -my plans are undone
   -my hopes unfulfilled
   -my purpose lost

I've come too far.

Well, yes, I answer, as if he is stating the obvious.
