World

It is a fact that we may live 
within travelling distance
driving distance
walking distance
even spitting distance
from each other,
Yet, we may never meet 
or see each other's faces

That's why, this might make us think 
we have nothing in common with each other
as if we are the king or queen mother

Anyway,
if I'm mistaken, correct me please,
early or late, such a thought will most probably
become a disease,

We all have only one and unique thing in common
that's a one-syllable word
which bears everything we share;
So, tell everyone around you 
to keep it in mind, 
long before minds go blind
