A Memo to My Perfectionism

I prefer my own indifference to your superiority. 
I prefer my own denial to your certainty of everything. 
I prefer my imperfection to your intolerance.
I prefer my inhibition to your insistence.
I prefer my insecurity to your condescension.

I compel others to be more.
You demand them to be less.

You lack corruption and compassion.
Your mind is never still.

And while you fear no reckoning, I do not fear you. 
A ruler stripped of title, you're a mocker in my ear.

Nothing more;
Not to do and not to say.
 
I've done enough already.
I am enough without you.
