Flawed Existence Dividends

Nubs and dents and chips and strings Imperfect world that burns and stings Dings and scratches, holes and bends Those flawed existence dividends Cuts and bruises, broken bones People that the world disowns Paupers, cowards, plagues and kings Imperfect world of many things

So very apropos for the world in which we live today. Nothing is perfect, and by far we humans are not. Your rhyme and cadence are faultless, so maybe some things can be perfect after all.
