The space at first blush just keep words apart.
When writing they make us look very smart.
But what if the space was more mysterious than thought.
And they hid a character that jumps out to make our sentences nought.
Or they might be dangerous foes.
That might in the future space out all of our prose.
Now on I’m watching the little beggars to see.
If they might even sneak influence on weird letters such as “v”.
You just never know they might gang up and make a sentence swell.
Just in case I’m watching capital letters as well.

    You have a knack for poetry, Peter. Now I'm going to be watching the spaces between!
