Day 1 prompt: something about you
As your mouth crowds
Toward your right ear
One deep dimple pools
Into a period
Maybe end of discussion
More likely a brief stop
Before more action
You skew and accordion fold
Your forehead
Into an apostrophe
One brow raised
The other pushed low
Conveying words omitted
Straight quotation marks
Hold permanent residence
At the bridge of your nose
Their depth tailored to
The height of your emotion
Emphasizing your intentions
Like air quotes
The bracket of your mouth
Square
When you’re playing it straight
Curly
When dimples pop in at either end
Supplementing
Your life’s story
Commas turned sideways
Dance toward your temples
Moved by the smile in your eyes
Sweet pauses
In your animation
