Literature Text

This broken pen will write the words
All by itself

Inking through all the pages
Dripping down my thumb

The strokes so beautiful
Will turn this page alight

Drifting over the lines
Sinking into the crease

Pages torn madly away
Mend back with black stitch

Years of notes, of friend's names
Covered

Almost finished
And finally done

So I close the black notebook
And begin again

In white chalk
A poem . . . About a new notebook and a broken pen.
