Melting pot

What is remarkable
  is how unremarkable you are.

Each of you
in your own way
is no more special than the next.

A conglomerate of sameness
in the end
unique only for a brief time
spent alone as you.

A melting pot
of thought
that will only conclude as
equal shares of truth being seen
like the wonderful creation I am.

Life.

Please tell me what you think

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!

    Amazing the interpretations are as unique as this piece. Prophetic I dare say. Working with the populations I work with it is even more provocative.

    Wonderful Doug. I always enjoy your pieces.

    I know I've always thought this author had a unique quality about him. You've hit a cord with this one. Reminds me of that part of the Beatles tune."I am she,and he is me and we are all together" This has depth.And is a creative piece.

      lol. Well, thanks suseann. Strange, but the opening line was in my head when I woke up in the middle of the night, which happens to me alot, actually. This time I remembered it enough to attempt something 'creative.'

    What can I say?
    First, that it's good to read you again.
    I do not delude myself by thinking I'm better off or worse off than the next. Who I am special to are those who are special to me. My children, my mother, my coworkers, my higher power, and my friends. That's more than enough for me.
    I dont expect preferential treatment. I dont want anything more than what Im given, and to me that's perfectly enough.
    Anyway, best wishes in your contest.
    Love,
    jin

      There are many 'special' to me to, Jin. But they too are no "different" except to me. Thanks for coming by!
