You arrived here without remembering.
The mouths were already speaking.
They had been speaking for some time.
the crusts were laughable, but the room was warm
— overheard, a bakery on the third street
I stood under the awning and counted the rain
— overheard, the storm of last tuesday
her coat smelled like a rumor about a wedding
— overheard, the seven o'clock train
the seventh stop is silent & that is its review
— overheard, an unfinished sentence

...the croissants quietly judged each other...
☁...a coat made entirely of rumors of a wedding...
✦...the awning hummed in C minor for twelve seconds...
〰...do not return to that bookshop, it eats vowels...
⌇...the eclipse paused for someone tying a shoelace...
✧...subway stop forty-two never opens its mouth...
⊹...the bookshop cat reviewed me, three breaths of indifference...
❀...her voicemail was a long vowel that meant goodbye...
