Question

Once - I completed a 10,000 piece jigsaw puzzle. It took me a few days, but I worked on it until I couldn't keep my eyes open, then started again every morning until that damn thing was put together. And I finally saw a beautiful picture of some stupid horse in some stupid field. Leaves and grass - the designers make a lot of leaves and grass for the small detail ...

We're too busy
for jigsaw puzzles
endless hours
finding that exact right piece
for that exact right spot.
Backs aren't supposed to break
over little pieces. 

And
if we want a beautiful picture
of some stupid horse
in some stupid field - 
we can just go buy one
ready-
made.

But it wasn't really stupid, was it.
If only people would take the time to be precise
over "stupid" things.  Just think.

But a puzzle can represent life, the picture but dessert.  My Mother loved jigsaw puzzles and I did my fair share growing up during harsh winters. To me it always came down to a contest and how fast I could put one together!  I am proud to say that I am now 40 years without touching one!  Liked the ying and yang of the two stanzas.

details on the stupid things 
time spent makes it better than stupid
ready-made sucks at best

just the thoughts that randomly went through my mind when I finished reading this.
