perfectionist

she tried to keep her appearance
flawless and smooth like a shiny
new Ferrari, but something
would always wrinkle her lines
like fingerprints left behind
on clean windows, she could
never achieve perfection

    A wonderful poem and who wants to be a Ferrari when being yourself is so much better!

    Perfection's a myth anyway, so...

    Fine work!

    At least she's got some fingerprints...
    Maybe she'll grow into accepting herself.
