surely you jest when you say
"nobody's perfect"
there has to be
a man...a woman
a person maybe two
who fill that slot
I was sure I would find
the one who said that I'm not
somewhere over a hill
but that was not to be
those that say
I'm not perfect
have disappeared
or maybe they're behind a tree
so I will always be perfect
Until they show
and prove to me
that I'm not
the perfect person
I profess to be
I love the jaunty (or at least I read it as jaunty) "surely you jest!"
