Perfection Deflection

Folder: 
2015

Perfection bred from desire

Perfection, smooth and seamless

Deflection led through the fire

Deflection, fueled and flawless

 

Perfection bred from practice

Perfection, punctual and pure

Deflection directed with malice

Deflection, purposeful and lured

 

Excellence achieved through sacrifice

Manipulation slipping through vice

When fully flourished and done

Perfection and deflection meld into one

Thanks! Yea I don't know what

Thanks! Yea I don't know what to really call the rhyming structure but I wanted to try and keep it as tight as possible, in my opinion this is more of a visually-pleasing write than something read aloud I'd assume...I try to change it up every now and then to challenge myself.

"...Slipping Through Vice..."

Upon closer reading, these lines become haunting, touching things best left unfelt. I call it writing inside the lines for the emotional seepages that only the finest poets can mine. Marvelous write (read aloud this would be astonishingly mind stopping). Thanks to you for creating it. ~A~
