Spit and Polish

A time for you.
Pulse,
   The gun fires again.

Not to bowl you over
But this one is permanent
   Persistent
And always patient.
   A monster for progress.
   Hold on for your dollars
   Those britches are flying in the wind
   All spiders floating on the breeze
   In dismay.

An aura of pretense, well away.

Maybe the cupboards are closing
   Shelves stocked with feuding
   A popular structure
   Well away.

No harbor,
   Apropos to name.

A motion to elect
   Sonnet made
   Frame of mind
Polished wane
   A moon's delight

No more mimicry or tinkering in the bitter leaves of vanity.
   A motion of delivery
   Style of dictation

Spit and polish.
