GloPoWriMo for April 16 and 17

A little late with these due to having to finalize taxes, but here we are:

April 16

a delay does not signify

conscious bad intent

but rather serves to clarify

more precisely what we meant

when saying yes of course

I'll do it -- no prob! --

was it honest or forced

or did time get robbed?

April 17

-- and now, a pause to meditate

the scythe has again swung past

made the round, dodged fate --

The year's going fast.
