BRIEF INTERRUPTION

this stillness
what is still
this stillness

the silverware is oily
my bank account is online
music is still music

beneath the quiver
of a doorbell
that is a kitchen knife
rising in the black of
-and white

so well dressed
no hot water, no heat
the boiler still
incomplete

the pads
of the cat's paws
tap
