I am a misplaced comma

A pause,

When there shouldn't be

A breath (,) taken

When your meant to carry on

Or stop entirely

Reset!

Period.

Full stop.

But I keep going

Hanging on the ankles of

The last letter

As it tries awkwardly

To shake me off

To whisper

"Not yet"

Or

"Not here,

This spot is for someone else"

But I'm not ready to finish my thought

Or maybe I just need

An extra,

Break

In the wrong place

Where I'm not supposed to be

 

If life is a sentence,

I am, haphazard

Punctuation,,,

,O,v,e,r,used

,Under,used

&

In, all, the, wrong, places,

Thank you that, made me smile. Oh wait I, think, I might be misplacing a few commas myself. 😁

I can get annoyed with people's misuse of punctuation, so probably good for me to laugh about it. Clever idea and hope to read more.
