After that One Phone Call
I was in shock, I now know
back then I raged
and went into denial
all that standard stupid stuff
I was good for a couple years
then relapsed into my old habits
and never recovered my earnestness
Not the best patient
not patient at all
no matter how I seem
It's been 18 years
things are getting worse
and better, depending on the numbers
on a white sheet of paper in black type
so black and white
She's calling a specialist
I imagine doctors in their ivory towers
with string and empty soup cans between them
Or maybe Morse Code?
