DIFFERENT

…by Poetic Tee “Here, take a sip”

I'm a day different from the rest

Having no light, devoid of darkness

Where creatures scream dawn to dusk

Walk, talk and stalk themselves astray

Counting seconds not firsts or thirds.

 
I'm a star different from the rest

Absorbing all lights, nil reflection

Avoiding glitterati, all eyes, d'eye

Never twinkling nor shimmering

Consumed pure, dark brilliance.

I'm a rain different from the rest

Rising from earth to the heavens

Neither nourishing nor reviving

Dehydrating, deflooding minds

Dry moisture, flowering deserts.

I'm a body different from the rest

Invisibly amoebic, diffusingly osmotic

Buried afloat, changing realms, wind

Traveller in human imaginations, glint

Here, there, everywhere, yet nowhere.

I'm a plant different from the rest

Burrowing down, spreading leaves

Not green, yet shaken by the winds

Watching water percolate nostrils

Plum fruits, unbelievable to taste.

I'm a thought different from the rest

Perpetually disappearing till the ring

Pulsating in beats, rhymes, rhythms

Sought after away from my source

Return to me, start all over again.
