Line

 
A Fine Line
 
Long, straight and
step-on-a-crack,
break-your-mother's-back
hard.
Get in, stay in,
stand in and wait in.
Hold it or keep it moving.
Just don't cross it.

    I like this poem, Michelle. There is playfulness and seriousness in the lines. We don't often find both in a single poem. Well done!

      Thanks, Sabra. I did just try to play with phrases related to lines and see if I could put them together in a piece.
