Debatable

If everything's the same
as some folk would claim
well that would make living lackluster and lame

but we’ve all been designed
to express our own mind
and I hope everybody is thusly inclined.

What a wonderful truth about people, and life. If we all looked at things the same or were the same..it would be a very boring world. :-)

Hello, I really can't take credit for this as it was completely inspired by Herb's writing over at Pixels and Dust.

Hey Rich, just found this one of yours, I am humbled that you used one of mine as a launch-pad for your own. Even though it is evident this piece aims to disagree with my poem , I feel that I agree with yours too. Because yours is about life where as mine as just a cheeky stab at the repetitiveness of the (mostly teenage) writers over at a poetry forum I belong to, thus my poem was about other poems.
Though the one little quarrel I may enjoy disagreeing with is the "we are all created" line, but of course poetry is about ones own (symbolic) spirit, to express what they which.

Great write mate, top stuff.
