The Perfect Imperfection
April 22, 2015
The wheels keep turning,
The screws so tight.
The slight smell of burning,
And then it ignites.
The burst of flames,
From under the door.
The windows shatter,
And the machine is no more.
The wheels stop turning,
The screws slip out.
The smell grows stronger,
And the fire bursts out.
A design so perfect,
But came with some flaws.
Next time it will be better,
And won't burn down the walls.
