A most interesting analogy that you make with days and hours growing as well as nails. Clipping nails shows that even the most mundane of tasks can be used to make a poem. Well done

There is no ointment- a gem. Psst...what about- running like it\'s doomsday? Surely another gem of a line. Now the question is- is it perfection of assonance? Or assonance in perfection? Not sure. But surely I am sure of having liked it very much.
