I am the same, you are the same, no we are not really, but a reasonable facsimile we are nonetheless..


Poem Artwork

Reasonable Facsimile…


 


Quite the opposite, am I,


From that of any other, so there,


I do not look like them, nor do I sound the same,


But still in all a reasonable facsimile I am if only in name…


 


My looks are not the best; my girth may be bigger than the rest,


And not to forget my mirth,


I have a sense of humor; yes I have had it, ever since my birth,


I think the gods must have a sense of humor as well,


Making me look the way I do, has to be humorous,


Doubt that the gods made many like me; they would then be too numerous…


 


So I have to make the best of it, as I am an almost exact copy of the next,


I see myself in the mirror, knowing I am more than one, not a twin, certainly,


But a good reasonable facsimile, therein, of others, so I guess herein I am done…
