Well, some of you, being much better writers than me, said this needed a rewrite. Taking your points of view into consideration, I cringed after reading my essay/story. So I'll try to get a rewrite in when I can.

The shift from singular to plural is awkward (my to we). Then the shift from first to third is even more awkward (we to their). I would advise keeping the pov the same throughout the entire piece. And I don't exactly see how perfection is tied in to this - I mean like, .. the last mention of perfection seems to differ from the first mention in the third stanza, although I'm not sure how. But other than those little bits and spelling, it's an interesting read.
