Don’t ask me why
I just know
I’ve seen it before
It just shows
Nobody loves me
Very few care
Nobody wants me
But everyone stares
I come when summoned
I’m on display
I better be accurate
On every day
I get one chance
To prove my worth
I’m always terrified
Ever since birth
I’m a pocket watch kid
Who need never be
Put away when finished
Wanted infrequently
la fine
A Fair face with sharp eyes has a vision
Beholden with sight so blessed and so cursed
Bound to truth that no lie may pass her lips
One of three diviners knitted by blood
Her mother grounded in the distant past
Bygone is never goneby in her mind
Fair Face exists in time yet to unfold
Accuracy with details yet to pass
Her daughter, womb encased, knowledge of lies
Recognizing those who will use such tongue
Triangle inheritance of true sight
Genetically shared by this trio
Triangle inheritance of cursed sight
Where daughter will be the last so endowed
