147

You got a call when I was born,
answered the phone in your living room
with the musty vanilla carpet.
The same smell that's in your clothes.

Now we're sitting here
on the plastic covered sofa.
They left us for the kitchen,
where your legs won't go anymore.

Do you wish we'd spoken more?

How do you do?
Fine, thank you.

And voices in the kitchen swim away.
