THIS MOMENT

If I could speak into your phone

if I weren't suffering from dry mouth

frog in throat

chapped lips

the whispers

an uncontrollable blinking

and a hiccup fit like I've never heard of

through history and chronicle...

If I could talk to you right now

I know exactly what I'd say...

No, I don't.

Which might make it easier

that, at the moment

I suffer so.
