Straight lines do not morph
Do they?
They do not wobble
Or float into one another
Or spill
Over their clean boundaries
Floating in an impatient
salty,
blue
Clean,
that too
But not uncomfortable
Not sharp and raw like straight lines
But not completely soft either
Firm and supple
Not soft
Not hard
Not
Like straight lines
Running parallel to the sky
