puzzle

To seek unity, 
harmony, 
beauty, 
perfection --
so brief the description,
so proud the oration
-- So terribly painful 
the implementation

It's a puzzle and Also
a miniscule piece
of the puzzle the universe Is,
that we face

In the eye of pain, joy
At the core of joy, torture
As I'm sitting here, typing
these phrases in order
Images and ideas, small parts of my soul
Unfold on the screen,
they somehOw become whole
and they have a perfEction that isn't quite right
And I love them,
and love is the answer
-- all right?
