People think I’m…

But I’m exactly that

I am dot dot dot

I am ellipsis

I am who knows?

I am the afterthought
The sentence trailed off
The awkward…pause

People think I’m…

But they are exactly right

Dot .dot. dot

Not much to it
Not much to say
Nothing worth discussion
Not really anything at all
