Repast Transposed

To touch a sleight
with fingers right
to feel your flight
take withered spite.
Let loose the blow
and block the flow
to fight to grow 
so all will know.
To seek to blame 
and not to gain
To play the game
but not the same.

To touch a right
with fingers sleight
to feel your spite
take withered flight.
Let loose the flow
and block the blow
to fight to know 
so all will grow.
To seek to gain 
and not to blame
To play the same
but not the game.
