No Modality

True mortal perfection doesn't exist, so let's not compare ourselves to it.

Illusory manifestations

Contrarious infestations

Self-worth

Ill-thoughts beget such creations

-

Envisioning perfection but never thinking

Such thoughts be contradicting

Reality

For it is a subjective internality

Not to be contrasted with modality

For no perfect being exists

Each to their own thoughts persist

-

The goal should be to manifest the supreme

Of possibility deep within

Without comparing to fictionalised perfection

Or extreme misconceptions

Of seemingly flawless ideas

As in the world of creatives

Exists graves for the sick and forlorn

Ideas.

Ones in the light were simply wringed and explored

Before they saw the light of day to explode

So, keep on working and forget the masses

Continue to work on it until your brain callus

For an idea is never born in a simple fashion

I write fiction, poetry and occasional articles about interesting topics.

Finding interesting ways to write a poem or hide messages within them seems to be my main interesting in writing now, and it's been fun

    Mohammed, I like the rhyme scheme on this piece and the message behind it! I also appreciate your vocabulary choices that gave me cause for some googling (I love learning new words)! I love the message of not comparing yourself to others or this idealistic version of perfection! I love that you challenge the idea of perfection in this piece, such a brilliant message! Keep up the great work Mohammed!
