don't answer that

it's best not to answer
that knock at the door,
or pick up the phone.
no need to gather the mail
from the floor.
no one of significance
writes or calls anymore.
few meet for coffee,
or lunch.
they type.
and send. with an emoji
no less.
God help us.
the end of the world feels
closer and closer
old friends.
