Gifts - And Recriminations

What you took
Is nothing near
What you have

But you did take
The whole damned lot
Left not an ounce of love

What you shook
Is nothing near
That closest shave

But you did shave
The whole damned lot
Left not a sign of stubble

What you look at
Is nothing near
The book you read

But you did read
The whole damned lot
Left not a word out of sorts
