the subjective case

you fall in love
with an anonymous
person who
comments
on your poetry.
she writes, at least
you hope that she's a she,
and if not, what then,
about nouns
and pronouns
and proper usage
of verbs.
she is incisive
and right in her
comments. it pleases
you to no
end, that someone
cares that much
to rid your hurried
work of superfluous
prepositions, she or he
shows you where
to dot the eyes,
and cross the tees.
i'm leaving those
words for her,
hopefully,
to fix too.
