Whatever you think you know. Even if you take your time. Use all caps and grammatical conventions. Mind your gaps. You don't. There's always some other shoe to tie. And when the bow breaks. Just at the spot when you pull. You could blame the method. Crosses and hearts. Foxes and holes. But, really, it all comes down to the strength of the string. And who could hold fibers so accountable? For all the things lost. All the times that everything left un-tethered springs out all over everything else.

I am trying to get back into this habit. And your comments, as always, are very much appreciated, Isabelle.
