"You say I am nobody anyway / Yet nobody is perfect so you say"


Poem Artwork

I Am Nobody

If nobody is perfect and I am nobody
Does the exception which proves the rule apply to me?

A curious circuitous immortality
Through rejection to reflection of divinity
By election to perfection through nonentity

You say I am nobody anyway
Yet nobody is perfect so you say

Am I the exception which proves the rule
To make some somebody nobody's fool?

If nobody is perfect and I am nobody
Then the exception which proves the rule applies to me

And I know of some somebody who so wants to be
As I am who must not be because some somebody
But nobody is perfect and I am nobody

This is very intriguing. I just hope there is not a "No one is perfect" out there, then perfect would be No one and nobody and if you are nobody but not no one then you have competition, yes? Don't mind me, I tend to ramble! Loved this by the way!
