the phone calls

there are places
I don't want to get a call
from.
people too.
the bank for one.
the credit card service,
the doctor.
my sister, actually two.
any call in the dead
of night
is deadly.
the vet, the lab with
blood work.
the neighbor next door
who pounded
on the wall with her shoe.
the police, the IRS,
or the county delegates
wanting my vote,
wanting me to decide
and choose.
