My colored pictures are outlined
with a Copic fine fountain pen,
the ink when I erase again
stays put and leaves no smear behind.

In the lines I search for figures
a man, a dog, an elephant
and ink the shape that’s relevant,
outlining my colored pictures.

Until I reach my own designs
the shape wriggles before my eyes
while I decide how the page lies
searching for figures in the lines.
-Lynne
In my control I keep the lines,
after the initial scribble
the kneaded eraser nibbles
until I reach my own designs.

Erased graphite pencil scrawls roll
across my latest squiggle sketch
because I have to really stretch
to keep the lines in my control.
