The Lie of Perfection

as we walk the wall and see ether side as fear takes you to your knee in the fight for perfection we miss one thing the perfect world as perfect as can be and i fight for the stars and the moon but perfect is at a cost humanity and as always the love story take shape

Hello John, I absolutely agree with Miss Devonshire that perfection can only be found in God. God is love, so by loving we may reach perfection. Congratulations on your featured poem. Ernilando

This is a very compelling poem, John. Perhaps perfection can only be found in God. If we think we find it in others, we are often disappointed. I love the way you continue to search for it!

Love is the closest we get to perfection ... then we must trust the other mirrored in our distrust. Great conversation. Let us continue
