Small Vertical Circles
by A. Paige White odd balls
I'm mentally turning cartwheels
in the front yard with my children
to witness such foolishness
I notice as I witness
to an official activity
by scrawling my signature
in small vertical circles
some with a slant
some with a stem
one topped with a jot
one entitled to tittle
I'm practicing cartwheels
while it appears I'm looking
at the line where I sign
I'm watching my wrists,
would they sprain at the strain?
the odds of an oddball
rolling out in small vertical circles
as likely as
some with a slant
some can't be stemmed
some with a jolt
all with a wiggle
to a chorus of giggles
