i.
So much to be said
technical difficulties
we’re breaking up
ii.
I’ll call you back
and forth comes the same response:
Silence, no… static.
iii
At first frustration,
then doubt what I was doing
wrong, I’ve done something
iv.
haven’t I? What could
I say then, in such short time
and in so few words…
v.
Can you hear me now?
We were going in and out,
the signal was bad
vi.
but now loud and clear:
“take care, goodbye” I managed,
just as it ended.
