Obsession
You're hung up on perfection
There is none
Live and spill
Clean up later if a glass breaks

Dear PS,
“ Clean up later if a glass breaks” the. best. line. ever! It’s so difficult to not self critique into a false sense of perfectionism but I’m doing my best. I’ve noticed through some major retail therapy I’ve really started to let go...a girl has to start somewhere if she finds out she’s not perfect!
Great reminder in your write. H🌷

But but but ... Well you definitely wrote this for me. lol I have fought with my OCD love affair with perfection since childhood but eventually I had to realize that getting that last 10-20% can take far more time than it's worth most of the time. Still I even hesitate every time I go to post something here and have a graveyard of full of drafts but at least it's peaceful there.... lol

Well you always know I'm holding a RP in abeyance in case you don't put out a poem on time. An RP is different from a RL but you knew that ..,.
Appreciate your RL !!!
Thx Kx

...perseverance from our imperfections is what inspires
...live and be real!
colorful wisdom put into words
...gotta love the creativity of abstract artistic insight

I’ve seen too many crush under the weight of perfection. Every so often you have to say
“Fuck it” and go with your gut .....
Thanx Feet

There's so much to be gained by saying "fuck it"! Perfection is an illusion anyway. Except for this, this poem is perfection. 😉
