If I wanted to use one,
I’d use two, one for me
and one for you, 4 to a
bar, 5 to a fence.
Comma connotes pause,
like a cat’s paw does,
when lifted midair.
Pick up your comma poops,
put in scoop bags,
and place in the trash can.
The Once and Future Comma Queen
will return to Gramarye.
Pause, and enjoy, an ice
cold comma, tonight.
Harmonic Bohemian Comma Scale:
lunula moon, clipped ring finger
nail, crow talon, gypsy jazz plastic
guitar pick, muddy udder rudder,
silent scythe, silver clacker spoon.
There is no substitute
for a comma, either
you use one or you don’t.
Comma rules form
a book of spells,
a Grimoire.
