the guilt phone call

i'm waiting on the holiday
guilt phone call
from
family.
it's a yearly thing.
the why don't you
visit more,
why don't you call,
why don't
you stop by for dinner
this Sunday,
or fly
to California?
why don't you send
me some
more money
or buy me 
a new car.
that sort of thing.
but
it beats getting the hallmark
card.
