PICK UP THE PHONE
mad hippie poet 1974 (new jersey)
The phone constantly rings off the wall, but it is not normal. So many times, I tried to disconnect the line, but it was heaven calling, and it was saying 911 on the other side. I thought I had lost my mind when the only people that wanted to speak to me were the dead. What from them can be said that was not spoken when they walked this green earth?
