Perfection

A perfect man has no place In this fallen abandoned race For what is perfection in itself The pride of the godly and a deception of self The virtuous speak of values and takes others to task But who will tell what goes on behind that lovely painted mask Sham! All is sham! Give me a human as human as he can be To show you truth in all its simplicity.
