Done is Better Than Perfect

. . . says the Perfectionist to herself as a consolation prize!

• All I needed was one minute.
• I was begging to the clock.
• But it was so unyielding,
• With the sound of each “tick tock”.
• I could feel my emotions sinking.
• My heart filling with despair.
• “Remember ‘done is better than perfect’,”
• As I slumped in my office chair.
• That is what I tell myself,
• Each time that I fall short,
• And accept my consolation prize,
• ‘Cause I’m a damn good sport!
