lady with the sliding miter saw

i watched her run the blade    
across the lumber    
gliding through      
how a finger might run through hair    
     
blonde hair, her hair    
     
speckled with conifer
spraying onto her black zip-up hoodie    
     
and the saw screamed    
     
i don't know why    
seeing her work a profession    
mostly dominated by men    
would make me like her more    
     
but it does
