I'm not a perfectionist, I do try to do my best though.


Poem Artwork

Quite a few have this thing
with perfection
I'd say anyone doing their
best is a good explanation
If man would have remained
in the garden of eden
he'd have the perfection that
he's always needing

Man gave up perfection
for a more adventurous connection
God never really planned to
use his puppet strings
He knew man would eventually
fly with wings
But wings are for birds of a feather
man still pulled it together

Perfection is a goal to work for
very seldom reached in score
Problem being friction
and an invisible gate of restriction
There's nothing stopping any man
from doing his best
or passing the perfection test
other than a goal too far out
when one travels the
perfectionist route
