Why Won't The
Phone Stop Ringing?
A love poem by Steven Wallace
Written on January 18th, 2003

I hear a ringing sound. Is it the telephone?
Ho hum.

It's still ringing. Won't someone pick it up?
Ho hum.

There it goes again. Where's it coming from?
Ho hum.

 

 



AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's still ringing!
Why won't the phone stop ringing?!?!
