Angels Loathe Contrived Perfection
No angels on Earth
For dreamers and screamers to find
Whether they lose or catch their breath
Lost in deep recesses of the mind
Teeming with fantasies
Where fairies toe a perfect line
Drawn in sentimental seas
Where their unicorns decline
Cooking perfect meals
Observing sublime etiquette
Clinching integrity deals
Won on a truth ticket
That frowns on human frailties
Blemishes in character
Flaws, foibles and fragilities
Inherent in every human sector and vector
In which the human mind perceives a mirage
Conjuring up images of snow white angels
Whose main purpose serves to sabotage
Any whiff of weakness sent to imperfections jails
Dreamers create as they indulge in self delusion
In Utopia where perfection reigns supreme
And a fusion of illusion and transition
Ensure dreamers blame
Men and women who don’t conform
To Stereotypes
They form
In insane minds that refuse to reform
Their misconceptions
About merits and demerits of reality
Married to laudable perceptions
In which human foibles outperform the convoluted fragility
That sweeps the acceptance of imperfection
Under a shame carpet
Away from any section
That builds castles in the air and pampers paper tigers in a Trojan puppet.
