...it's here in the elipsebecause I have burnt my tongue on my coffee again
(I like my coffee hot)
and when it scalds my throat

well, at least I know that I have it all
safe on the inside
...it's here in the elipse
because my thigh muscles complain with every step
in protest, perhaps to the

...it's here in the elipse
because everybody is in a hurry when it

wet all the same
...it's here in the elipse
I live
because

_________down
_________here
I can't make it
mean anything
until you
Finish
whatever it is you were (not) saying about the coffee
and the needles
and the rain
when your SILENCE was so
very
____rudely
__________interrupted

-the pain of the needle
-the sodden feeling of rain
