Simple Machines



This morning
I moved
a comma
with great
effort
,
wielding that tiny
black fulcrum like a
wedge, perhaps the
lever of a pulley,
tugging up the corners
of your smile.

  1. Your poems always make me smile.
    (And this reminds me of a meme I saw on Facebook that said something like, “Thanksgiving. Food comma,” and had a drawing of a comma with food inside it. LOL!)

  2. The smile is one of the most simple machines. You move commas in the best way!

  4. Fantastic. A comma holds so much power.
