Punctuate

-
Punctuate, she says. Punctuate.
Punctuate carefully, your motions, your thoughts,
punctuate all you've got.
And people.

Turn them into words,
and phrases, and clauses, and questions;
things you know.

Instead of
this endless stream that feeds into you,
like some giant apparition
trying to climb down your throat.

Punctuate, she says.
Punctuate a lot.
