The Pebble

brought into an unfamiliar place
dumped in a pot filled with others
conforming to their society
lost in the sea of likeness
rolls away, gone from the we

can either be kicked
or nestle in the crevice
and refuse to move
with the stubbornness
of a thousand mules

there are those that stumble
upon the pebble attempt to throw it
back into the society of pebbles
and disappear into the pile
but some pick it up, treat it well

with hopes that the pebble will bring luck
or at least give the pebble a chance
to sometimes hurt the heels of strangers
but otherwise live on its own
and make a wonderful pet rock.
