Perfecting Imperfection

A beginning and end
in search of a middle,

our imperfect world
continues to revolve
regardless of what we do,

and while I am
continually frustrated,
I really am
comfortable with it,

the way it works,
because I view it
as a challenge,
even if everyone
around me refuses
to accept it.

I will keep trying,
perfecting imperfection,
because that is all
I can really do,
all anyone has
ever done

for hope.
