Perfection's gleam a star in the eye of the beholder
To another but a scar darkness growing colder
Point for the winning team, disaster to the loser
what's pornographic to a priest would seem an act of love to the seducer
Mud, quenching liquid for a thirsty man, gaging in the throat of another
whore known to all the clan, to her child mother

Yes, precisely Soren. Perception is never neutral, always dependent on POV (Point Of View).Again, neatly poetical, concise.
Thanks so much Dave for the encouragement. Lord knows I need a little as the poetic well has grown a bit dry.
Rest and recharge if it gets that bad, Soren.
How very true we all see what we want to through our eyes indeed we all have our own point of view. Nicely done my dear sorrenbarret 🌹
Thank you so much Teddy for the read and understanding interpretation it is deeply valued as always
True, but God searches the heart.
Thank you so much for the review and words
Yes - and also:

You hit the nail on the head.
Thanks Thomas it is appreciated
So much wisdom here, but that’s not enough to say. (Don’t wince) the yin Yang thing can be trite in lesser hands but not here. A comparison might be on observation of a group in unison performing Tai Chi , it would be trite to notice moves in common and generalize but that may be the greatest disservice to self., a limit that reflex adopts then births that overly proud and boisterousn explanation as the ego of some needs a place to go , never recognizing these built their own corral and will insist they didn’t.
That is a world of the yin Yang (trite).
If allowed to seep and steep the minuscule detailsnd beauty of Nuance dances in and performs and adds splendor as that Tai Chi master with control and precision snf timing and urgency to improve is separate and a Joy to own., much like it was for me as I read your piece. Thanks for listening.

Thank you Thad for the read and most generous remarks they are appreciated and deeply valued.
You are the master of the short and sweet, when you are not looking I just might steal that mud line. Borrow?
You are too kind. Take it any time. Your reviews are most appreciated.
the interpretation of stimulus as deemed by the senses past present and future ..
the above definition has remained with me ever since our first lectures on the subject of perception many many many years ago .. and boy, have you just reinforced that here .. you are absolutely right and the rule is, it applies to absolutely everything and everyone .. the topic features large in my would be novel (A Certain Point of Beauty) ..
A splendid offering today sorenbarrett .. 100/100 at least ..
Neville
