Occupatio
Definition: A rhetorical scheme that allows one to describe something while simultaneously denying that the description of said thing is taking place. Application: I will not wonder whether fat flakes of snow hit your cheeks this evening, too. Will not indulge in peanut butter, or use it as a mortar to build a graham-cracker house. Definitely will not call to wish you good night. After all, I never heard your hidden things; I only knew that your lips felt like leaves bursting into color. But I won’t remind you of that. This is, in fact, the last poem I will ever write about you. Because I want to be kind. And not to remember.
