into the slot
to make a call, a long
distant call.
i had my quarters stacked
up on the small
metal
shelf in the phone booth.
it was raining.
it was late,
there was a three hour
difference in time.
it didn't matter, i had
to talk to her.
i had to know if she was
still mine.
someone in the dorm
picked up, not her.
she wasn't there, she was
out, i told the girl
to leave a message,
tell her that i called,
tell her, i miss her, tell
her....never mind.
never mind. i hung up.
