Dream #107


the girl I’m going to marry

lives far away in another town

I’ve never been there

so when she calls to tell me

she can’t wait to see me

I ask her for directions

but her voice becomes garbled

and I keep shifting the phone

from my left ear to my right

while trying to write down

what she’s telling me and

I’ve filled an entire page

of my notebook but

she’s still not done

her voice drones on and on

and when I start looking over

all the things I’ve written down

I know I’ll never make sense of it

I know I’ll never find her
