an emdash, an endash or a mere flick of the wrist,
a grammatical reprobate or the madness of an eccentric
capriciously jotting down a note while baking a cake.
in a house all closed up, curtains down, her hand
sashays across the page, first giddy with long
strokes, then quietly slowing to catch her cup of tea
mid-stroke, a parabola of droplets raining across
her newly written poems.
