Yes. — You!
You are special
and i don’t mean
because U R unique
one of a kind
‘nd all that B.S.
they feed you down at
the self help section.
…
No.
You may have
brought down 387 Spitfires over Germany.
You may have
painted better than Picasso every done.
You may have
been declared a saint
(and damn well know you ain’t)
You may have
been the first man on another moon
…..
I don’t give a shit
nor does the universe
for
you are special
in, of, and, as (you name the preposition)
you are.
…
Don’t believe the buggers
that nail us to a wall
and describe how this one
is a work of art
the other not.
…
Don’t believe the number nummers
the rankers with their files
the check markers with their critic’s smiles.
…
You are special because
you are necessary.
Each photon of your enormity
says that
you are here and
this world wouldn’t exist
without you ….
…
You may be a rock star
or slinging beer at a bar.
You may be on stamps
or enjoy fast cars.
Doesn’t matter ….
Rich or poor
slow or sore.
You are special.
…
So relax and be.
There is nothing you
have to accomplish or believe
save,
you are special
a god that makes this world
go round,
special found
as you are, are
here ‘n now.
