Middling is not so bad

In school I studied medium - neither good nor bad.
In life again, there are no special UPS and downs.

Everything goes smoothly, without excesses.
Well, give or take.

I was often called offensive word "middling". At school, at the Institute...
And only mom always told me that I am what I am...

And the other such on the entire Earth not will...

If you remember on Earth: the horizon, too, a middle, an imaginary line between the earth and the sky.

So, middling, like the horizon, is the basis of our life.

Not geniuses and villains - just people.

So am I.
