Mathematician
November 3, 2013
He sits.
He sits some more.
He moves.
A pencil.
A pencil writes.
It scrawls.
He sits.
He moves the pencil.
The pencil writes.
He dictates numbers.
The pencil writes.
He dictates equations.
The pencil writes.
He covers the paper.
It’s incomprehensible.
He sits.
He sits back in his chair.
The pencil is still.
He admires his work.
The pencil is still.
His work is outstanding.
His work defines life.
The pencil.
The pencil helped.
The pencil gets no credit.
The pencil is still.
His work is there.
His work is.
His work
And the pencil
The pencil is still.
