Second Skein
First boost given by childhood privilege
Level defined by class, income
Indicate potential, an esteemed image
Gains permit exclusive decorum
Height obtained owes society's support
Top promotion opens rosy resort
Tariff emphasis applies gradual gravity
Wherewithal relies on deals won
Obligated to uphold palpable authority
Freedom creeps halting, a lizard
Lured from dimness, limbs doused in sun
Impulse to replenish is permission
Granted by spider vagabond home spun
Hung in a piano accordion alter
Tumult affords torn threads a small falter
Takeoff administered via mishap
Waiver sails on wind universe determines
Oracle unfolds glory, God's map
