Phoning It In by Leah Mueller
I dreamed of
Writing a poem
About laughter
On my cell phone.
I don't remember
The words.
That's the best
I can do
Today.
“This poem seemed rather short and pointless, although one of my friends thought it was brilliant. He’s really into dreams. I couldn’t figure out what the hell to do with it, however.”
