to a thought that dropped by, uninvited:
you offered a pronouncement, bluntly
i offered a response, politely and untruthfully
but here is a truth,
because i should say it:
i think, in this moment,
about how accidental you are
how incidental,
in your own inconsequential way
how small you are, and
how i trifle with your nothingness, and
how you keep returning
for more… and more… and more
