The man that may spend an eternity in his head With dreams that deem all else damnable; Shall push and pass the world outside And live in wanting of an end with no path. And so many live in unrelenting squalor As their own subpar perfectionists. Afraid to lurch towards a start Lest they find themselves wanting From themselves. Any direction will bring us back To a world of inaction; Save that of dreaming; We dream it all.

The Subpar Perfectionist
The man that may spend an eternity in his head With dreams that deem all else damnable; Shall push and pass the world outside And live in wanting of an end with no path. And so many live in unrelenting squalor As their own subpar perfectionists. Afraid to lurch towards a start Lest they find themselves wanting From themselves. Any direction will bring us back To a world of inaction; Save that of dreaming; We dream it all.
