Poem: "you stroke the cream paper with a pencil"





you stroke the cream paper with a pencil


floor of a house
a fishing rod
a ladder’s step
eyelids of a god

heart’s flatline
flight of a ball
line at the end
it was a shawl

here or there
short or long
yours or mine
right or wrong

a row of trees
a dovetail joint
a lottery queue
trace of a moving point
