18 Dover

Shadows
Pulling down the shade on window
You’ll pick it up again tomorrow
It couldn’t have been more than an hour ago
That we were talking
On the telephone
“"Hello"” you said, “"Who is it?...She’s not home!”"

But you were
A blurry outline through plexy-glass
And 27 yards of cut grass
Every seventh day the magenta dress
And your hair pulled back
Makes you look much older
Better when it cascades down your shoulder

"“Hello"”

Hi miss
We'’re offering a special service
For those who have been feeling nervous
About all the creepy business
In the neighborhood
So you’re at 18 Dover
We’'ll send one of our men right over

“"Thank you good bye"”
Sooner than you know
“"Thank you good bye"”
Sooner than you know
“"Thank you good bye"”
Sooner than you know
“"Thank you good bye"
Sooner than you know
