My Life Is a Buffoon

Bit by bit I build my life 
But it never becomes a structure 
Where I can put my head in rest 
Lay down my soul in peace 
Neither has it become a calculation 
Though I keep adding and subtracting 
 Till date I did the sum   forty times 
Nowhere have I seen any perfection 
Nor any proper displacement of it has been seen 
Only it keeps revolving around
 Like a true buffoon
