A Man of Non-Substantial Value and Underestimated Worth

Inspired by Mr. Nobody written by Anonymous located in A Children’s Book of Verse, Illustrated by Eric Kincaid, Poems selected by Marjorie Rogers. (Brimax Books)

Creeping around corners quiet as a mouse he walked soft to be unnoticeable for a value of his worth became his downfall

Sadness creep around features of drawn worth for no one valued a man viewed none and lack

Looking at future as bleak he stared in fathoms of loneliness as time stalled picked up speeded by

One day occurred that revealed the truth that viewed as none became the sum of all that none is all and true deceptive wise

Acknowledging fate as fortuitous he began the circle of 360° evolved and started to become a man of substantial

Viewing changes in attitude during interactive play he became a man of worth no longer estimated or thought of as man of little worth and underestimation
