Intensive Care

DateTuesday, August 23, 2011 at 12:35PM | by AuthorOtter

Long before they tire
Of dialing your number,
Explanations scrape your tongue:

How kind you are,
Don't call. She sleeps
Fitfully in our warm afternoon.

Soon the howling phone
And digital ID make solicitors
Of friends, surveys of kin.
