Ramekin


I told you the ramekins are breeding. You said that it's impossible, ramekins can't fall in love. I said nothing of love. You tell me I have a problem with tense shifts. I tell you sometimes the ground shifts, I can imagine you as someone with inopportune luck, getting caught in an earthquake barely in the shower. I told you we shouldn't have bought a sectional, crevasses spring up all down its length, dividing us. You said we're better off this way, it's like having three couches instead of one. You tell me that you told me, the cheap blinds are melting in the sunlight. I tell you maybe they're melting in the moonlight and you have a problem with tense shifts.
