PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

trying to listen

to the Talking Heads

first album

on a Saturday morning

with the phone ringing

off the hook

usually it’s about

some dumb fucking shit

like selling newspapers

or Time-Life products

some are obscene

others are computers

or people I have

no desire to talk with

Why couldn’t David Byrne call”

I might actually

be willing to take that call
