Lineman Poem by Martin A. Ramos

Lineman

Rating: 5.0


A simple pleasure
composing one good line
and counting

Not always
you can get the words
to fall just right

Summer heat
writing three good lines,
counting

This thought:
how many different ways
to express it?

What of
the sounds in these lines,
their meaning?

Looks easy
when the final syllables
just jell
