Ever So Slightly

As if this stiff could ever lift
the sent home with sentiment
this rule of release relent
this season's subtle shift in tone

Like this lad could lead or load
the embers of September into code
fibbers on fibre to the node
Now we're equipped with here encrypt
We've heard your crash We've seen your slip
lend me your ear and don't give me lip

In what way could the watts sway
the speckle of sparks stray
The little lightening of the load
 that'll give you trouble up the road
 
As if this stiff could ever shift
the cementing of seemly sentiment
this riled rules out repellent
this season's subtle lift in tone
