This is the last stop
End of the line
We are arriving at lonely block
In rock bottom time
Desperation calls like I'm a main operator
How may I direct your call today
So lonely I can imitate her
Yes could you put me on with a lonely male
We could be a match just like a fairy tale
So I hear the dial tone ring
Ring...
Ring...
No answer
I call the operator again
This is that lonely female
The one without the background of wedding bells
I asked to be connected with a similar male
The telephone rang
And rang again
But there was no answer
Should my graveling begin
Wait! No you mean to tell me
In a world consumed by the male ego
That there is none
None that can satisfy me
So you say my standards are to risen
To awaken
To stricken by pride no male would have me
How dare there be no equal to maturity
I don't blame the operator
Just doing their job
I blame the male on my level for not noticing how lonely he is without me
Can he not see my APB for his handsome confidence
Or is it just his hesitance
Pondering on the thought that I am not ready
Ready for his voice his smooth medley
Ready for our future our combined love can venture
This is the last stop
End of the line
I have arrived at lonely block in rock bottom time
I step onto the platform
Only to be informed
Wait! There he is... in all his magnificence
WE have arrived
Together
At rock bottom times

PHONES ARE MUTATING THE SHAPE OF OUR BONES
What if cellphones possessed such power that they could alter the shape of our bones? This is a startling new topic that has recently been making waves across the media. It originates from a scientific report suggesting that the use of phones and tablets can induce significant and enduring changes to our bodies, but not in the way one might expect.

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.

Gossamer
"Murray! Wake up!" He loved that period between waking and dreaming. To him, it was like entering another dimension; more of a dreamscape than dreaming itself. There was an otherness to it that he wanted to grasp and yet deeply respected the fact that it could never be his totally. This is what gossamer was; flighty and light, a wisp of smokiness, an idea suggested but not fully revealed, a slit in cloth, a copse in the wood.
