it is this fountain pen
you see
that is responsible
my Hogwarts wand
flowing words onto the paper
my words slowly shaped
no others like them
sometimes they line up
jostling to flow
to get out
coming faster
jumbled into an unreadable mess
i could use a keyboard
i am a fast typer
but i would lose the feel of the words
flowing onto blank white paper
giving me time to think
and to feel
showing me the way ahead
