watched traffic
answered the phone
cars buzzing by
answered a question
where are they going
I wondered
typed on keyboard
looked at fountain
in circular pond
answered the phone
water splashing at peace
gave a robotic answer
water mesmerizing
gazed at sunset
golden sky alight
answered the phone
angry customer
I don’t care, mine works
transfer the call
not my problem
darkness settled in
answered the phone
little red lights
disappearing
down the interstate
hung up phone
disappeared
with the red lights
