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?

Mosaic

I am a piece of everything

I am a part of everyone

I am unique but the same

Because we all think different ways


I got my face from my mom

But my eyes from my dad

My hair a mix of both

But you can tell whose child i am


I got my style from my mind

From pinterest and Tv

Thrift clothes I find cool

That likely came from cool people too


I text using slag I picked up from a friend

And act in similar ways to my favorite characters

I got a bag i loved because i saw people with my style using it

And i do things because it feels right


I rip off bandaids

Even if it takes awhile

my best friend taught me that


I do my makeup a mash of a thousand ways

And i wear the jewlery I am gifted

my best friend dyed my hair red

and I am ready to admit I may not like men

dosent that make me chaoticly me


I am unique and me

I am special and beautiful

But that means I am a mosaic of everything

That I have ever loved

That I have ever hated

and that i have ever known
