POEM STARTER

Submitted by Mel Davies

Write a fictional story or poem that revolves around the question: are we truly unique, or are we mosaics of every person we’ve ever known?

Ourselves Or Others

Humans are a strange topic

We imitate others

Friends, sisters, brothers

But they say we are unique


When I was little

They taught me that

We were all different, just flat

But it's not just a simple answer


I studied, in my own way

Hanging with people unlike me

And felt how the way I act and see

It matches all of them


No one can be sure

If we are the same

Or different, it's such a shame

But I think I know


We are ourselves

And ourselves are others
