REALISATION, MINOR
See also: Friday, late; diagram, five-tier; tea (cold); chair (geometry of).
The moment before the moment — catalogued here not by what was understood
but by what the body knew first: the slight backward lean,
the pen released without looking,
the cat's tail curled to a comma on the sill,
punctuation for a sentence no one spoke.
Cross-reference: WINDOW, grey-pressing; LAMP, radius of; WINTER, Christchurch (the specific kind that closes rather than arrives).
See further: all the Fridays that ended this way —
not badly, not well,
but rearranged.
