send you a bill in the mail
file a letter without fail
fill a form
hook a worm


at the bottom you will sign
write on the dotted line
fill in the blanks
write shallow thanks


memo to department chief
note about occasional grief
post script at the end of statements
final summary of latent payments.


form,notes and memos have lines
rally attention, take your time
jargon is often quoted in free verse
when misunderstood, punishment is worse.

This brings to mind the importance of reading the fine print, as well as grasping what is written between the lines. Much enjoyed this thought-filled piece Ecrivan.

Best wishes,

Hello Kit,

So it goes with the fine print and shallow statements that tend to cover them, right on!


JWesley,

I supposed I could have been more lucid and descriptive, but chose a graphic approach

(sigh) Oh Martin, I know just how you feel, it seems nowadays between the lines people are always adding more lines and when we try and draw conclusions, we tend to miss out on the messages within and we always face these uncertain obstacles sometimes in result! (big hugggsssssss) This is powerful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martin, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
