Question

I am big or little,

Tiny though not small.

I can be exact,

And only that

but inexact to all

Apart or a part

And a part too.

I can tell you this

Or what the digit is.

Well restrained by you

My role to be or not to be

I can be two or more

So pull up tight

Do your's in fight

And stop this awful bore

the hands of a watch?
is it
No - sorry

decimal places/decimal point
No - sorry II

Sorry DenIzens - unless you make them fit all lines its not the answer, if they do somehow fit then that is another answer - there are enough clues

a Measurement

I am big or little, (mm, km)

Tiny though not small. (?)

I can be exact,(measured precisely)

And only that

but inexact to all (never exact)

Apart or a part (separate measurements and a portion of somthing)

And a part too.

I can tell you this

Or what the digit is. (mesurement told in numbers)

Well restrained by you (?)

My role to be or not to be

I can be two or more (km/h)

So pull up tight

Do your's in fight (do mesurements in a fight, pick on someone your own size)

And stop this awful bore

time?

I am big or little, (obviously time can be)

Tiny though not small.(tiny but not small... like not insignificant)

I can be exact,(a single moment in time)

And only that

but inexact to all (time is always moving on can never really comprehend a single moment in time)

Apart or a part (spend time apart... or a part of an hour... minute... etc.)

And a part too. (same as a part above> or there could be many explanations for "a part" for time anyway

I can tell you this

Or what the digit is. (what time it is.. on a clock for instance)

Well restrained by you (we are all restrained by time)

My role to be or not to be (life & death is decided by time)

I can be two or more (people have different perceptions of time)

So pull up tight

Do your's in fight (fight against time... until it finally beats us all in death)

And stop this awful bore (life is mundane... time lagging on)

ha i think this works!

pretty good and i wld say perfect - I have a different answer, your explanations are worthy of a few kudos points - BUT there isa reason its tiny but not small

So just a little of the target

a scale
- sorry

a hair
no hair - he he

that's my guess

Pi
triva or any other flavor, all numeric trivial persuit answers are 0, 1, no cigar

An act (as in a play or theatre?)
no - fits some, but not all

nice one LIS (whether this is right or not) ;)

peace/piece - a very timely riddle in several ways
FanQ - more warm, but no

...a period? I noticed that there are no periods in the riddle, and the last line goes "stop this awful bore"...I figure putting a period there would make the sentence (which without it is a monstrously long run-on...) stop? "Two or more" could refer to a colon and ellipses...
;)
ws punctuating and usually dont - thought i had done it all, was distracted i guess - sorry for the distraction to you Yaruchi-san,

More puctuation to seperate meanings.

One word fits simply and sweetly

I am big or little,

Tiny though not small.

I can be exact,

And only that.

But inexact to all.

Apart or a part.

And a part too.

I can tell you this,

Or what the digit is.

Well restrained by you.

My role to be or not to be.

I can be two or more.

So pull up tight.

Do your's in fight.

And stop this awful bore.
