Identity is what completes a person
Name is what he calls his own.
Diversity is a denomination
Inherent to all of God's creations.
Vain are men who place too much
Importance on their names
Disposition must not be based on such.
Uniformity will only fit the fools
Analogy won't make self-evaluations cool.
Likeness may attract a new acquaintance
Imitation may even gain acceptance
Though in reality, if indeed truth be told
Your uniqueness is what allures the world.

Excellent Piece
This is such a philosphical piece of rationale and reason--it does not need the acrostic to give it further emphasis. In fact the acrostic is submerged and seemingly obliterated by the confident message given, and yet--it is there!
You did a marvelous job on this one, and I commend you for it.

What a strong and brilliant ending. Thank goodness we are NOT all the same. How dull of a place would that be. You make some great points here. Well done!
