The Sum

sitting on the curb
waiting for a call
pondering the passing faces
with each a dream
a hope
a horror
a story like none other
and I decide
all are one at sum level

Indeed, unity is the prize. I like the way you see something in nothing. John

Very clever and so cool. Loved this little look at who we all are, even if we don't know it. :) Nice Maureen.
