I am not used to such tragedies”
Drama said pausing.
“For someday soon, the oil will boil over
and leap from it’s pan and burn us all.”
Then I really understood what it was meant to be.
So I opened my mouth wide enough
for a sea to flow out.
The sound was so silent and still
it could never be heard;
not even by the fruit bats
flying by my window.
