I love the skillful word-play in your poem. I especially like the subtle word substitution in 'As far from perfection's existence/As from perfecting existence, ' as if to say that if perfection does indeed exist, then perhaps it is in the process of perfecting existence itself. Very compact, and complex, thoughts and structure.
