Everything that is left out.
Implied. Inferred.
Like the Saddest Story Ever Written,
Often attributed to Ernest Hemingway.
“For sale: Baby shoes, never worn.”
An iceberg tip of six words.
Dive deep down and explore,
That submerged mountain of subtext.
Illuminate the ellipsis.
Or don’t.
You probably don’t want to know,
What’s really under there.
