The Lifelong Quest

The lifelong quest
for an imaginary perfection
has come up short
and experienced a defection
with a decided inflection
toward a kinder sport
and with a jocular snort
abandons the infection
embraces self-ejection
from that palisaded fort
and heads for the intersection
hoping for the best
