Imperfect Poem by Chloe Evangeline

Perfection: an ugly word
we have no use for it
no exact definition
for it is an opinion
an opinion of those who
do not believe in the human race
those who believe in no mistakes
no blemishes
on those who are so,
Perfect
A word that America cannot claim
a word that is always miles ahead
of where you stand
a word that hurts you
this is a word that cannot be used
cannot be achieved, cannot be reached
those who cheer think they can
think they are
but no
perfection is impossible
and disgusting in my eye
when people try
try and be
perfect:
an ugly word, not a word at all
not in my dictionary, not possible
IMPERFECT
