It seems to me when I’m out and about that crowds are getting smaller when the chit-chats are heard less and less and the kids run away with no spoon It surprises me when grannies roll away when neighbors are not in want of anything when bullies decide to bully each other when the postman never rings even once, ever It startles me when buses and trains don’t run during peak hours when twenty-three-hour restaurants are closed when the local hospital is out of town when I dial 911, I hear a recording, “The number you’ve dialed has never been in service!” It stuns me when my family doesn’t know me when my spouse ain’t heard of me, giving me the ringless finger when I knock on my neighbor’s door, they knock me out when I go to the confessional, there’s a recording from a local law firm giving me legal advice It shocks me when my best friend became my worst enemy when my worst enemy became friends with Hannibal Lecter when I pray to heaven, the bible falls on the floor and when I said, “What the hell was that!”, there was a knock at the door.
