Expectation of Perfection


If I could change one thing,

it would be the expectation of perfection.

The "you. can. do. it." attitude.

The "you. have. to. do. it." domination.

I would change the world

by concocting a perfect renunciation

of the long-held belief that

imperfection is degredation.

I would suggest to our Expectors that

they take some time for introspection.

After all, if everyone stays perfect,

we continue in stagnation.
