    I thought the list of words was interesting, and I thought it was even more interesting because the profile said it was open to the reader's interpretation. Human beings have genetic information, so we have commonalities, and we use this to empathize with each other, but this approach is refreshing because it's different from that.

      Noting is absolute not even this statement. Life is full of paradoxes. The poem gave me thought and that is the seed of a great poem.
