You want perfect?
Art is perfect
No matter how many lines or words
Or strides or curves
Art is perfect
Even if it doesn’t flow
Or the punctuation is all wrong
Art is perfect
Whether it doesn’t make sense
Or isn’t accepted nor tolerated
Art is perfect
Though the form or artist may be diverse
Or the work is your own
Art is perfect
