maitreyee joshi - Perfection

Perfection is hypothetical
Perfection is incomplete
It is vertically dyanmic
As you climb up the ladder
And feel that we reached the top
The ladder grows in height
Or you are still vulnerable
To be engulfed by the snake
Perfection is horizontally dynamic
Like a baloon growing in size
But it bursts with a pinprick
Do we call it luck?

Perfection is unidimensional
Like the two facets of a coin
Cannot face eachother
or we can't blink and observe keenly
At the same time.
Or we loose the view of the topography
as we observe microscopically
Do we call it limitation?

Perfection is transitory
Like the moon attending that perfect size
passing through phases
That lasts only for a night.
Perfection is personal and unique
Perfection transcends births
Perfection transcends the worlds.
