Subject of this passage
You write an original figurative passage with this prose poem template, using ordinary paragraphs beneath a title. You write the subject's name openly in the opening sentence, then connected comparisons about that subject within a separate .md page.
You write in plain text with Markdown symbols, as described in a .md file's format.
Paragraph template anatomy
# Write a brief title for the passage
Write a paragraph naming an ordinary subject in the opening sentence and describing it through a comparison.
Write a paragraph extending the comparison through another aspect of the same subject.
You write a brief title beside #, above the figurative prose.
You write the subject's name in the opening sentence in place of the opening paragraph instruction. You write a comparison about that named subject in the same paragraph.
You write a connected comparison in place of the second paragraph instruction. Beneath this template's title, you write two prose paragraphs without further headings inside the passage.
Per paragraphs and blank lines, one blank line between two runs of text gives two separate paragraphs; you put one such line between this template's two paragraphs.
Jane Doe's thread passage
Jane Doe, an invented adult, writes this invented original passage for the sample.
# Distance wound small
A spool of thread is a small reserve of distance, a long reach folded into a round handful. Its wound length is a coil of nearness, far ends held beside one another without a knot.
The thread is a narrow measure between edges, a soft bridge with no road upon it. In its slenderness, the gap between two hems has the width of a valley; the spool is that valley curled around an empty center.
Within the sample paragraphs, Jane Doe writes about the spool first and the thread second.
Filename of the passage
You write thread-prose-poem.md as this sample's filename. You write hyphens and the .md ending into the name, as in naming Markdown files.
Where Sashmark fits
As planned, Sashmark will be a desktop program for viewing and editing Markdown. That program is for people who keep AI agent output in .md form. Sashmark remains in development, and no version has come out. A set of such .md files is one sort of material planned for Sashmark.
