How To See



If, once upon-a-time, you’d wanted to see all the 
invisible signs between words you write - they’re 
the normally blank spaces that unless you press 
a sequence key appropriately don’t fill with those 
blue dots - and what on earth’d make you bother; 
if it seems a fair quest, try getting rid of ‘em when 
the pests have taken over and driven you nuts -  
& what does it do for a writer who hadn’t a clue 

how the durned incorrigibles got there first place; 
okay - in the space of a few genius guesses this 
scribe managed to see pages preferences might 
have had their finger in a bursary of ill-will, and it 
proved th’ command key pressed with ‘,’ made a 
subtle change to such an egregious effect - but 

the moral of the story is, I know now how to see
