The Ellipsis Poem: A Sign Of Omission And To Be Intuitively Understood…

The Ellipsis: My favourite piece of punctuation. (Yes I have favourites.)

You don't have to say anything 
It doesn't have to be signed in blood
What's going on between us is fully understood...

Or labels or defining things tick tock
We know what words intuitively punctuate each dot dot dot
