mountain texting

the woman
who fell off the mountain
while on
her fifty mile
run
was not missed
for several hours.
everyone being so
exhausted, but
plowing upward
with their heads down,
but when they did
a head count
at the top of
peak, she didn't
answer. there was no
Susie.
everyone looked
around for her.
Susie, they yelled
out. Susie.
on the way down
they searched the shrubs,
the gullies
and crevices,
still no sign of her
until they reached
the narrow ledge where
they had to go one
by one
around the rocky
bend. there she is,
someone shouted.
I can see her yellow
hat, and matching
yellow shirt
and shoes.
and I'm pretty sure
that's her phone in
her hand. it's blinking,
I think she's
got a message.
