I am glad you asked
me to speak
things you already know...
three dots at the end of my lines...
do not make me a poet
when I parse lines I

night-after-night...
what book of answers...
what a story...
what an ellipse...
(pic is from the NASA gallery... a moon of Jupiter... I think they said it was Europa...)
