Tea Break

It was a usual tea break
Where questions were cues
To keep moving.
In the fleeting pairing game,
I managed to avoid her,
Hiding behind the elephant between us,
That was dark and huge and refused to budge.
When hot tea splashed over my chest,
I cried out loud,
Not yet trained in not crying
Over spilled milk or tea.
