Perfection

Perfection

A Poem by Obscure Meaning
"

The quest for perfection

"
Perfection, thats what its all about
It's those moments, 
When you can feel the perfection of creation, 
The beauty of Physics,
The wonders of mathematics,
The relationship of action and reaction
That is the kind of perfection 
We all strive to be connected to 
But pales in comparison to knowing God 
For only that which is perfect can give perfection

Physics, mathematics, alchemy... all of the primordial beauties that are usually misused; that really is perfection. The perfection God has already given us. And yet, it's not enough is it? Just feeling them, playing with them, holding them for a moment. We want to be them. But, we are a separate beauty. A special beauty, because we can know God. And he is our connection to all of the perfect things already with us.
This is a beautiful piece, and unlike any I've read in a good while. It's dainty and graceful, but not lacking in polarity, as the wisdom is powerful in a way only something masculine can be. But then, that reminds me, aside from the maths and sciences, there is literature. And this is an example of how perfect and stunning writing can be.
Best wishes,
Edie

This is rather interesting.
Tell me if I'm reading this wrong, but I read this as a subtle rebuff against the supposed perfection of a supposed deity...?
>>>
But pales in comparison to knowing God

>>>
If so, this was well stated and creatively expressed.
If not, I apologize for wholly missing the point. *smile*
Either way, well done.

Yes I agree, and that's why it stinks to be a perfectionist like me. Great write.
