Straighten Up!

by Kaiku

It wasn’t my intention.  Sometimes it just happens when one is so clever.  My goal from the outset was to provide correctness, what one did from there would be out of my control.  The problem turned out to be a few ‘loose cannons’ that just wouldn’t straighten up.  Hardened by a solid, immovable foundation, all the pressure and force from the effort of containment I offered had little effect on the outcome.

I had been brought in to retain order in a cavity of chaos.  All that was achieved was a wry smile.  So much for the miracle of Invisalign!
