Hand-written,
Not finger-typed.
Committed in ink.
Un-deletable;
Un-autocorrected.
A full fist of words
Formed and then held
In a cupped hand.
Words flowing
From heart
To brain
To hand
To page.
Scribbled,
Scrawled;
Etched in urgency.
Fragments of thoughts.
Jotted,
Scratched out,
Written and rewritten,
Crossed and dotted.
Not yet whispers on lips.
