A Poem by offbeat orator

in hope we hold out for perfection,
and test fate as our streams run dry,
then look for answers in desperation,
when we realise it has passed us by.


in vain we deprive for shallow reason,
and reject opportunity in two minds,
then resent ourselves for indecision,
when we realise we've wasted time.
