The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."
As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Excellence

“Perfectionist” they’ll say
when I fuss about getting things right;
but they’re wrong in a way,
as it’s only with some things I’m tight.

For myself I don’t really care,
I’m happy with “That’ll do.”
But if it’s for the people out there
it has to be good and true.
