Beyond the borders of constricting margins,
There is a place
unmarked with lines of blue or red,
A place for overflow.

   A residence for last minute words to air,
     a quiet space for them to blare;
   If desired revised,
     Erased.

   A place to pond her overflow,
     to sift words, then let their ripples go.
   Or in the water,
     let thoughts drown.

Guesting ink spun thread
in its reservoir with lily pads, paper wads;
It's a space of resting
until further led.
