Conundrum
I purchased a prescription bottle
filled with princess cut diamonds.
Its label read: perfection®.
I was happy for a moment,
but realized I was alone.
Me: I had destroyed the world
in which a bottle of diamonds
was the standard for perfection
and was left to stew in the misery
of swallowing the perfect existence.
