The line, it inks across the freshly fallen snow
Where only those embracing coldness would go
In whistles and in whispers and sometimes in howls
It sings to me sweetly from trees and in vowels

Really struggling with that center line, and I used up all 5 minutes of my time trying to straighten out the right side. I thought I could eyeball it, but it’s still not where I want it to be. I’m pretty sure I’m going to pull the L square back out tomorrow to fix this hot mess. 

I’m just pulling on a line, on a line
Oh I’m just pulling on a line
I’m just pulling on a line, on a line
But sometimes it pulls on me

Great Lake Swimmers

I realize the line they’re singing about isn’t the same line I’m writing about, but I thought of this song when I was painting today.
