a sequence of words that has the temporarily strained but anticipated pop of opening a wine bottle
a sequence of words that rushes in but slowly recedes only to rush in again like waves at high tide
a sequence of words that alert you to something other than the thoughts in your own head like the delicate jangle of wind chimes on a neighboring porch
a sequence of words that are clumsy yet profound like subtitles in a foreign film
a sequence of words that are as expectant as a card trick yet quietly cruel like a poem
a sequence of words that pivot not once but twice, sometimes three times like the squeak of high tops on a wood court
a sequence of words that has the ruinous appeal of pouring hot coffee on ice
