Caesura

The break in and of a line is a most expressive punctuation. 

Or lack thereof

It's interesting to me that it doesn't pose a different thought,
or thought process,
but a continuation after a brief pause.
Kind of like a stop sign. 

It's a pause in speech, a pause in meaning, a pause in thought.

A rest, almost. Words are heavy, heavy work. A break in a line is a break nonetheless. 

How I long for a break.
