the urgent telegram

i've never
had a telegram, but think
what a nice
thing that would
be.
the piece of paper,
importantly typed,
with
a few short sentences
from over seas.
something you could
frame
and hang
in your den.
the dot dot dot thing.
urgent, it might read.
wish you
were here, but we got
sick
eating some bad
oysters.
urgent, send Pepto
Bismol
soon. please.
