Punctuation

====================

You might have noticed

Dear reader,

That I, your pocket poet,

Am in love ++++

++++ With punctuation.

---

I’m not resourced

With a great understanding

Of Colons, and semi crochets.

I use hyphens – And lay them out….

To trip you up.

---

The object ++

As I understand it,

Is to slow you down;

To hold you back, to have you linger on a thought.

---

To make,

Of a short verse < @ >

A marathon,

Not a sprint.

---

Sorry for that.
