I don't get noticed, ordinarily.
Not because those with me cannot see,

But more because I'm fabulously average.
That unremarkableness is my leverage.

I do not have a following or crowd
and typically I'm just not very loud.

To be a leader isn't what I need-
don't really want that job, I must concede.

By definition – neither big nor little;
Average is just right there in the middle.

I'm fairly happy in my quiet place
where there's no challenge to my poker face.

AndI can think my quiet, average thoughts
and be my average self, near my flower pots.
