CROSSES AND DOTS

Just lines
Twisted and bent
With crosses and dots
Forming letters
Lined up in sequenced
Unchanging patterns
Of vowels and consonants
Each word a meaning
Each its place
Each sentence a necklace
Illuminating my intent
To share
With you
The entrails of my thoughts
So that you will know
The madness
And the lines
Twisted and bent
With crosses and dots.
