curled like pencil shavings - v3

curled like pencil shavings - v3

curled like fan-shaped coil
of long pencil shavings
from bright colored pencils
a manual pencil sharpener
held, turning, in my hands

curled like a warm potato chip
fresh from the oil, the kettle,
a #moth striking a pose
on the side of the building
many days in a row
