Disconnecting the Dotted Line

It goes like this.
Take this pen
and dot by hand
lines that lead you somewhere.
It can spread like a disease,
take a form
or be what it is.
If you know Georges Seurat
you may want to know
he started this genre
call pointillism.
But today it's known
as stippling too
if you're not into
that kind of religion.
Or hell it's just doodling
while you're bored out of your head
and if it doesn't satisfy you
you could use lines instead.
Once you're done
the dots could mean
fold or tear
or simply you're not all up there.
