flipping an egg around the edges

of a magical pan (one that doesn’t stick)


and my brain floats to trepanation,

and how my skull would be bored into


by hand, with cranial drill squeaking

closer toward my brain as inquisitors


chatter over the pan and ask themselves

(while their sycophant continues to bore me)


“how does the egg not stick to the pan?”

and of course this knowledge is inside my head.
