Carpentry Of Poetry

Cut and saw
Align and draw
Rennovate, rotate or rewind 
Poetry of the mind
Empower or embed without a "but"
Nibble your ideas or strutt
Trot or tighten with a nut
Revert with pliers or grip
Yawn with tape measure or dip

Open your space with a wrench
Fold and brace, not drench

Planes or phillips you drive
Or punches and standard you hold until five
Extract your work with sandlers
Tools you grind and play with, like toddlers
Remove the nails and gauge with a bevel 
Yell and revel with awl and spirit level!
