Analysis of Big Measures Once Imagined
Longtime awaited moments seem to suddenly arrive.
Big measures once imagined seem to suddenly deprive.
Events of slight importance seem to suddenly expand.
Big measures once imagined seem to suddenly disband.
Misplaced utmost intention seem to suddenly emerge.
Big measures once imagined seem to suddenly diverge.
Romance of hidden fancy seem to suddenly inspire.
Big measures once imagined seem to suddenly expire.
Embryonic faith tenets seem to suddenly debut.
Big measures once imagined seem to suddenly unglue.
People of lesser standing seem to suddenly endear.
Big measures once imagined seem to suddenly besmear.
Latent quixotic wishes seem to suddenly arise.
Big measures once imagined seem to suddenly revise.
