KEYHOLE
KEYHOLE
My seat at the window
I fear Night's approach
Needle to thimble
My shroud of reproach
My seat at the window
Safe as my soul
His reach like a Willow
Tight as my throat
As cold as my pillow
A key on a note
My seat at the window
I hear Night's approach
A whisper the keyhole
My secret He knows
My seat at the window
A Breath mark
End-quote

music passage to take a breath or slight pause.
Its function is analogous to the comma.
As the two symbols look identical.
... As does a Keyhole.
