The Reprint


The black pencil was the answer for all my problems---
because it allowed me to erase everything you tapped

pin pricking
and step ball change, step ball change, step ball change

like this
scrape, scrape, scrape---
scrape

I charcoaled the better part of my hand
and then I undid it all

until we were greyfaced
with an obsession over this sentence we agreed upon
from some tenth edition sometime back
