Oversized Notebook

Three pages are always so far away
When the pages are so wide and so tall
I fall into a stupor, hand soreness
As I work my way through the daylight hour
The result is beautiful, always
Lines and lines of ink
Across unlined pages
A coffee stain
Yellow paper
Bound up
Listening carefully
Reminding me to do the same
There's more space than I need
Until it's full
Then it was just enough
