Greatness-vs.-Mediocrity

Mediocrity knows nothing

higher than itself

but talent instantly

recognizes genius

The mediocre stay

within their bounds

always the same

never changing

Talent sees beyond

recognizing like minds

genius joins

genius

Those with talent

recognize the genius

those in mediocrity

see nothing
