Virgin Paper

White virgin paper

Gives itself to me

And I taint its purity

With my ugly words

For like Adam and Eve

After the fall

It's no longer naked

And the possibility

Of perfection has gone

Perhaps if I weren't human

I could write something worthy

But no matter how great my words

My hideous scrawl

Sullies the page

And I realize that all creation

Destroys something

If only nothingness
