imperfection

Imperfection that you made;
staring right back there:
insolent and without shame,
demanding a clean slate...
....chance to shine again.
The mistakes now so real
should not be repeated.

Don't shed a tear for us;
mend and repair.
Perfection once contrived;
waiting for finishing touches,
needing your hand again.

What is that imperfection? Free will? Is it God's fault we are in this mess?
