Array ( [sid] => 85317 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Nothing New Under The Sun [time] => 2005-02-22 17:03:12 [hometext] => Just wrote this a minute ago. I owe my daughter for the inspiration. She showed me something cool she thought of, not realizing it was something mommy did many years ago as well. [bodytext] => Nothing New under The Sun

there is nothing new under the sun
i've heard that quote before
nothing new, no nothing new
not one....new thing.....more

so does that mean these words
i write
these thoughts i think right now
are somewhere, sometime happening
nothing new.....oh wow!

i thought i was unique
a rare and exquisite find
but now i know there's nothing new
and i have been, just blind

what moves us then?
what gravitates, that pull upon my soul
the part that makes me different
am i just a piece, not whole?

of course i can't be, but maybe i can
the pondering leaves me frayed
and as i ponder i wonder if
my doppleganger ponders this day?
