I would not be who I am without my mistakes
I would be someone else and might not have had this thought.
I think my mistakes are a part of my perfection.
My perfection is only as incomplete as the universe
as IT still destroys and creates stars.
IT is no more or less complete than I am.
I think the universe is perfect
I think our mistakes are factored in.
I have many more mistakes to make.
I shall try to learn from them.
the universe is still making stars.
I am still making mistakes.
I resulted from the same forces
that began the universe.
All my actions and reactions
are only those forces at play within my form.
and as my form.
I am the result of the universe,
I am not an introduction to it.
In a way I have always been here
waiting to become this.
Even when this ends I will have left forces in play.
I shall be the same forces
perhaps changed but still in play
Perhaps more sublime and ghosted
along the edges
But I do exist and that cannot be undone.
The same forces that are always in play.
That is the question and the answer.
Since the universe began with such force.
Its intention is as irresistable
as its beginninig.
I am this.I am those forces.
to a relative degree of intensity
I am FFfing perfect.
Oh yeah.

Gripping, Compelling, Powerful
I loved this poem. It screams defiance and strength, going against the tide of someone who would deny you. it actually gets me worked up. It has an audacious tone of indignation, and insubordination to those who stand in your way. LOVE it.
