Unique


A cup has no identity No characteristic that sets it apart Surrounded by uniformity Absolutely nothing unique A light bulb has no identity Mass produced in monotony Same parts, same process Void of anything unique A pencil has no identify It can create so much Yet look the same as all the rest Longing to be unique That’s the beautiful thing about the human race Every person of every race has an identity They have a characteristic that sets them apart They break the monotony bringing forth personality They have different makeups and background and ideas They are not empty but rather overflowing with all things unique That’s just the problem though The human race is too obsessed with sameness That they create everything without identity Cups, light bulb, pencils They fail to see that, unique is beautiful Sameness is unnatural And that the world is a better place, When individuals embrace those Who are different than themselves.
