Telephone Booth
we pretended to be Superman
checked for loose coins
listened to the dial tone
wondered if we could
make it ring
Now I listen to the dial tone
a comfortable static
pausing before I dial
and remember the
conversations we never had
but wished we did

Here you will find my creative detritus: articles on living a creative life and writing explorations.
And other ideas I have snaffled from the papers stuck on the fridge door.

Come and browse through the library; there is no need to be silent.

I love this. The description of superman waiting a telephone booth is great.
