[Dot Dot Dot]

Ellipsis points--
Nobody knows what's missing
Except the one who typed them:
The dot, the dot, the dot.
Or maybe they don't know, either.

But someone said something,
There was SOMETHING there
That got omitted because
It's not supposed to be important
In the Grand Scheme of Things.

But I'm not sure I believe that...

There's something in them, isn't there?
Something even in the way one dot
Follows another, and then another.
There's some kind of Morse Code
No one can seem to figure out.

Something's missing in them,
Someone said that something
Wasn't worth telling, It wasn't
Something of Importance:
But I'd like to be the judge of that.

I don't trust just anybody...

I'd like to know a lot more
About where I am right now
And where it is I'm heading;
But all I seem to get when I ask
Is another Dot Dot Dot or Silence.

And THAT's fun--Silence--
Because then you can't even imagine
The sound of the keystrokes:
It's just Nothing and Nothing and Nothing
[And you think you're abandoned completely]:

[Dot Dot Dot].
