LATITUDES, 4th EDITION
​Poetry  

A Love of the Unremarkable
by Dave Fouts

Vertical Divider

 
I'm being wooed by
the bland side.
It pulls
me out to sea
on a lukewarm tide.
 
Seduced by the spirit
of mediocrity, I'm 
pushed up high into a
slow moving orbit 
that's going nowhere.
 
Now floating far above those things
ranked and ranged in order from the
very good to the very bad, I look 
down and choose to celebrate dull
average, seeing it too is worthy of 
honor and not to be ignored. 
 
Filled with this new faith 
and love, I sing praises to
everybody and everything
that is neither 
too high or too low.
 
I rejoice in all that is just so-so
