The question of coffee vs tea is the difference between
wanting a seared belly or the presumption of your own innocence.
I wait for the shoulder to dislocate.
Observing the unhingeing of a body part
takes all the focus of hiding
behind a molehill before dawn and
watching the enemy sleep.
Lifting the tea kettle off a gas stove means knowing
Your exact location and the precise distance to a fire extinguisher.
The breath of dozing babes fuels the
burn of water on flesh.
