- I once had a friend with blue hair.
- Only for words did she care.
- Then she found the jot
- full of ablauts
- that didn't make it into her software.
- ***
- I have a tome of poetry by Louise Gluck.
- Every time I dare to take a look
- inside the pages,
- my muse a war wages
- against my heart to close up the book.
