curled like pencil shavings - v4
curled like a dried leaf
wicked of its moisture
rice paper, cardboard,
a sail, bent, turned
wrapped around the axle
curled like a 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
