Like Clockwork
Tall yet scrawny,
Contrition attempts to
Force its way through.
In this small window
Breed opportunity but of
An unknown flavor.
Goog-a-lee eyes always
Scrupulous and indeed
Tempting perhaps for
Once ignorable?
Unsheltered of course
Two wills in opposite
Directions cannot
Demand wholeness.
