    Society’s Perfection Holding on tight to the edge of the cliff‚ With this iron grip of mine‚ Hanging there until my fingers go stiff‚ I’ll try not to cross the line.

I feel my fingers sweaty and slipping‚ and soon‚ I will fall. A flock of birds flies by overhead‚ gliding in perfect symmetry‚ But that is the
