I’ve been meaning to call you
but I don’t know the number
and still can’t figure out time zones
But still,
I’ve been meaning to call you…
just to say hi
and that I’m thinking about
you.
Fondly, daveo

Our home phone number
Felted inside rubber boots
So I was never lost

Where have you teleported recently?
