Jack of All Trades, Master of None

There's this persistent question in my head.
"What are you good at?"
To which I answer self-deprecatingly,
"Uhhh... mediocrity?"
Unfortunately, I excel at being average in everything
Drawing, writing, reading, living
You name it, I've tried it all.
At some point, it becomes exhausting
Not belonging in the polars,
Just there, away from the extremes.
Always on the middle of the spectrum
Not good enough to excel, nor bad enough to fail
"Jack of all trades, master of none
But better a master of none than a master of one."
It was somehow comforting, or so I tell myself
Knowing that I cannot be categorized, not identified
I'm never simply something.
I am everything all at once.
