It wasn't in the dug-up patio or in the testimonies of neighbours or in
the thorough investigation or even in the courtroom; it was in the
toothbrush, its bristles forced into a centre parting, the residue of
Colgate Whitening on its handle. And it wasn't in the manifestos or the
lectures or the articles or the seminars or even in the quick after
class chat; it was in the drops of spilt coffee on the contemporary's
critically acclaimed latest collection, the speckling of latte left to
stain, to wisen the page before being wiped away with a careful sleeve.
