She says that
she doesn’t care
what happens to her
but the late night phone
calls increase
her voice
always sounding
more desperate

He didn’t call.
I want to drink.
and I know T
has coke.

I tell her to
go to bed, to
pick up a pen
to write it all down.

But she does neither
and she doesn’t care
what happens
to her.
