Flawless

Location

             I'm flawless because I'm flawed.

Perfection is always under scruntiny;

Pressure to maintain -

But I am free to eperiment -

To have a bad hair day.

 

            I'm yes because I'm no.

I've learned to go with the flow.

If one thing doesn't work;

If one door doesn't open -

I use an alternate entrance.

Yet, flawlessness is rigid.

 

         I'm right because I'm wrong.

Admit defeat, then move on.

Perfection, however, is without doubt.

They will never solve the problem

With their lock and key perspective.

Sometimes you just need a bobby pin.

 

        Perfection is not always what it seems to be.

Peel back the chipped paint

And you'll find something golden there.

beauty is often hidden

beneath your idea of ugly.
