Written on 1/22/2010. I don't know why but this blog never formats anything like I want it to be formatted. The title is supposed to have way more space between each letter. This poem was inspired by Tom Leonard's "the case for lower case" and an AIM conversation with a drunk friend.

I'm sure you wouldn't be taking space for granted if you were locked in a small box.

I like how some of the lines almost (but not quite) have hidden lines in them.
Double double take then you're back to normal.
I don't see what you're referring to.
