We were built to be inefficient because efficient would be a king telling us how to do things. ~ (prompt I saved who knows from WHAT source last August!)

We could be perfect,
built that way.
How easy things would be…
but if we were, decisions?
Unnecessary. Only one way,
no freedom to make mistakes.
Like marionettes controlled
stringlessly but managed
all the same, perfectly,
efficiently. But I have options,
the right to silly moves,
the choice to do – to be — wrong.
Then when I get it right
even a bit, just brush up against it
I’ve done it. And I have the right
to be controlled, but only
if I choose.
