Unicorns and Shoehorns

When the world
as it should be
collides with the domain 
of stubborn reality

A fierce battle rages
between the ideals
we cultivate
and the practicality
we perpetuate

The side you choose
says a lot
about who you are

Dreamer or realist

Optimist or pessimist

The well balanced soul
is a mixture of both

I pray for the day
I meet such an
ideal hybrid 
blessed with
the perfect blend
of art and cement
