telephone conversations
Lunchtime sings
apart
we make our reservations
Can you
pick the kids from school
Can yougive them supper, you fool
Of course I will be home
aren’t I always
Yes I am alone
aren’t I always
Your signal is weak
(and so are you)
It’s an embarrassment to shriek
at Zombie Zoo
LookI’ll catch you later
Yes I love you
but no I don’t hate her
That was
a long time ago
Her office has movedwe hardly ever; say hello
My credit is running out
(and so is yours)
I didn’t mean to shout
only to even the scores
Gold ring
late night consolationssupper time sings
Together
we forego our contemplations
Dreams are things
(I’ll share mine too)
For deep without
no love accrues
