Calloused fingers touch
the tiny led
made of stenciled appealing.
Calloused marks shiver
at the delight
of the thin-borough paper.
Lines are traced,
appearing as the
Holy Grail of Louvre.
Spaces are made for
blank creations
and under a desirable minute appears a letter
a letter of startling finalities.

More letters are added
on and on…
and more…
and a word is made.
What is the beauty behind this creation?
The Pencil that named itself
after its context master.
