necklace

I don’t fit in.
My shape and size
varies from the others,
harmonious and uniform,
lined up neatly
and working together.
I stick out,
a different weight of being.
I’m not shiny
or precious enough
to be the pendant.
Made of duller material,
I sit at the back.
But the others
can’t line up
without me,
for I am the clasp
that holds us all together.

I’ve been thinking a lot about positions lately: work, marketing tactics, personal goals, and writing.

What’s your position? Let me know what you think about positions: work, societal, etc. In the comments below!
