Ellipses...
by Joe CramerI must say that I have forever loved the ellipses...
Three dots to denote the omission of select material.
Though it is mostly utilized in writing of a legal form
It does fit so well in the schema of my attempts at poetry.
I still prefer the plural, ellipses...
And my three dots often turn into four or five.....
Still, like some star-crossed lover... I write on.....
Forever enjoying the words, and always the form... 10/18/2007 Author's Note: I forever march to the beat of my own proverbial drummer.....

Like RCat, I'm...uh...not...uh...quite sure if my mind would work all that well if I couldn't pause for 3 dots... Enjoyable read Joe. ;-)
