Fine Versus Far From It


Fine
is lace,
tatted and wholly,
holds together well.


Far from fine,
is holes, no holds,
no cling, all gone.


Fine
is bone china,
delicate, yet sturdy,
heirloom forevermore.


Far from fine
is jagged edges,
torn up, broken pieces.


Fine
is sand
flowing the hourglass,
future at every tip-over.


Far from fine
is mud, wet sludge,
plodding, going nowhere.
