we were watching a video and your phone rang; it could’ve been anybody. who knew it would be death? who knew you would go from laughing to grim, grim desolation in the fraction of a second? your face told me everything there was to know, which was simply that death had called. nonchalant. matter of fact. over and done with. now there is only tumult and mayhem and an inexplicable heaviness. absolutely no prospect now of meeting the lady i never would’ve met anyway, and yet. the interview tomorrow seems so… futile. like a joke almost. going on as usual when we know death has our phone numbers.
