I've been taught to draw
Flat on white notepaper
Graduations of thin to thick
Lines straight
My neck is on a cord
There are masters who draw bamboo with sure quick curving strokes
I drive on a street that runs flat from dawn to sunset
A city planners grid east to west for the workers
Blinded by the sun in the morning and again on return at night
Because progress is a direction
Forward even if it seems we go back and forth
I call it bad road layout
You need those curves to preserve your vision
A big ball of twine is what I want
A tangle of sheltering lines
No direction only a center spot in the shade
