A break in rhythm happens in a conversation or in a poem when I come to a place of such emotion or uncontrol that something in me wants to come out, but I grasp it in my throat. There I hold it for critical moment, trying to decide whether “to give” it sound would say the thing that wants to come out or whether reason will prevail and “give” the sound the mask I wish it to wear.

Thanks for your comment.
