Trial and Error

Contributed by Mrmcbiggums on Monday, 29th September 2003 @ 11:05:00 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



The constant need of expression,
never settling,
always striving,
for something better.
The collapse of a structure
when it's not found.
The rejoice
of perfection
when it is.
The frustration and self dissatisfaction
of inconveyance,
expressionless,
unable to grasp
the correct phrase
for the intangible.
Perfection is what all want,
but none can find.



Author's Note:

I would like to know what everyone who reads this thinks it is about. This is very important to me, and will decide the validity of the poem itself. I beg everyone who reads this to respond to it, telling me what they think this poem is about. An author is nothing without readers, therefore I am nothing without you.

I have to agree with Loving Whispers on the writing poetry idea. Makes sense to me. *Shrugs*

Hi,
To me this is has a lot to do with the
frustration of being full of creative energy
but not being able to express it and just
wanting to find the words that someone
else can identify with. Then getting some
feedback.

Hi..just me again :)Was wondering if the test results were back in and does the person with the correct answer get a prize?? LOL
*smiles*
Also wanted to add...could this also be about getting whats in your head heart or soul onto paper but just cant find the words and when you do,they're not fitting..not exactly how you want it said?

On the surface it appears to be a poem about writing. If it is truly that simple I think your end sentence "Perfection is what all want,
but none can find." is incorrect. I believe there are a number of writters who hit their mark.

Many strive to be better at something... jobs, hobbies, love etc. however, the poem could apply to all of the above.

I wonder if there is more to it than what appears on the surface. Thank you for sharing.

First and for most, you need not me or anyone else to confirm, this poem is about life your life, your goals, your direction, conformation, that you can touch, hold, each person whose path you cross. Goals are just that, things to reach for, life to be lived, perfection is found in heaven, not on earth, on earth we learn, we grow and in the end if successful we make this a better place than when we arrived. Your writing takes you a step closer.
Walt
