Tend, Then See

Busted knees and all
Dipped confidence in stall

We that lie, woolen sheep
Attack at night, slowly creep

Can wait and fail, and remain
Undeterred, the right words that seem sane
Then all fall to pieces
Fall in the right places
Enough light to shed,

Decline, what was shared is not mine
Enough to reframe and repurpose, justify
As unfairly denied

To try again, tonight
