(after Hal)
You keep looking at your phone
like something’s gonna change.
Nothing’s gonna change.
Nobody is calling you.
Nobody is texting you.
Nobody is facing your book
or Spacing your My,
Twittting or grinding you.

You aren’t being texted
or sexted
or even hexed
by anyone at all.

No one wants to talk to you
nobody cares.
You are alone in the world
with me here
and you are ignoring me
which makes it a wonder
that I am willing
to pay any attention to you at all.

You’re lucky
you have me
even though
you really don’t deserve me.
