Forgiving is easy
for those not directly
offended -- like, you
can’t sell love to the
loveless – no need. 
Be a professor and
have a captive kingdom -- 
the real world outside of
Tenure.  No tomatoes
tossed vs a good grade. 
Win the aim
but lose the war.

Hi Sara; so pleased you found some worth in this one. It is a bit enigmatic. I looked at it several more times...but, I decided again that it is what I want to say, and how I want it said. I really appreciate your comment. You also have a wonderful evening. Thank you.
