i've grown used to

finding

little ways

to make my senses clear of the situation we're in.

little ways

of touching the border of pain
with the ends of my fingertips

rolling little waves of hot coffee around

leaving minuscule burn marks

scraping sides of dry lips

with crunchy food

let sourness soak in a little too much

burning little holes

excessive use of muscles

knowing I won't be able to use them for some time after that


it really is about the small things in life
