Imperfect System (Tanka)

Imperfect system

Still, it is better than most

Even when it fails

Of little consolation

To the living or the dead

      Thank you Jen. I actually wrote this tanka months ago and it has been just sitting there waiting to be posted so with all that has been going on I figured now was as good a time as any.

    Even a perfect system would work imperfectly because it would be run by imperfect people.

      You are exactly right…now if we could just take people out of the equation…

        But then how would we learn anything?

        You are right, but there is so much pain for so many in the learning.
