The Naked Line by Pepe Nero

finer than a razor’s edge.
faint line,
starved steeple
heavenly aspirations

a Giocometti
shaved down
to thinnest
vertical being

the breeze
of your interest
stirred up the grit
of my flaws

they battled,
repelled,
attracted,
a trail
of soot in their wake
gathered.
the particles
clung for survival
to our invisible separation

the line,
became a sculpture

a poem
