Perfection

A Perfectionist sees where Perfection is not,
Often not seeing what they had ought. 
For the word Perfect means a great lot 
So stop being Perfect, accept it, you’re not.
And don’t expect others to give Perfection a shot
Because being Perfect cannot be taught.
So do away with Perfection don’t give it a thought, 
And why not be happy with what you have got?
