the perfect one

 there you see there the perfect one

that the human being begs to be

but then you see what the perfect one has become

because if you are  too perfect 

and the human being begs to be you

then it is your not perfect anymore

because when you have perfection

there is nothing to strive for 

and when you have nothing to strive for

your not perfect.

Perfection to me is much like a rainbow. They are unreachable, they are an illusion. Yet as unreal as they both are we are still naturally drawn to their mystical beauty and power. Never be afraid to chase either of them. They only look better and become more clear the closer you get to them... ;) Thanks for sharing your words, peace out.

Nicely inked and love the turns and twists of the words.

And that is life. Competing for something that lifts you out of the norm, then places you on a pedestal that your own inadequacies will crumble. Wanting perfection is a flaw in itself, surely?

Your words are neatly put, create a topic and fly in the face of ... poetry's logic.
