The Wars of Sameness

We have much in common,
the same number of limbs
organs, D.N.A., frailties.

Yet there’s still a smidgen, 
a pinch of disparity,
just enough difference
for a disagreement.
Enough to possibly instigate
an insoluble conflict,
or a religious feud
between one moron
and another.

Given time, we will surely
find other minor differences,
which will of course insure
that things will keep getting 
worse.
