There are a lot of ways you can order numbers There are a lot of ways numbers get disordered: clumsy
fingers; thick head But there is…. so much ringing Is that not coming from the other line
Maybe you should be asking these questions To a doctor there’s no time for that there is ringing
then there’s someone’s music
Running interference Is that Bill singing through the walls Coming from speakers
I’m imagining a girl on roller skates must be Venice Was it Venice
where I ran into Sommer Outside some small and crowded café Was it Venice
I dreamt about as a boy the past and present get so tangled I know it’s hard to look
back and it’s hard to live in they say to move forward
Forward to where into what is this about money its lacking its needing
any luck There’s a call on the line is it that boy from Chicago er… there’s no listed number
um… its unnamed and when you put the phone to your ear it is voiceless
just ringing unless you can consider the ringing its own kinda voice
there are doors and windows day-glo colors misplaced nights murder in the air
a window in the mind what kind of game are you playing at a murder of colors
a half-remember song fragmented into mismemory book with torn pages water damaged
an unanswered line a mistaken lead given way to a great lake Dan walking along the shoreline
Is this a search for clues or a falling into a rhythm an invitation for love
let’s not get ahead of ourselves there’s dried blood on the blade weird photos
distorted faces enlarged noses there are some real Twilight Zone elements
Bill singing like he believes in nothing Bill singing like he believes in everything
Dads in the park with their kids hot dog stench Sunday sounds
Forget about Chicago the witness is compromised the witness is all lies
Dead end another dead end phone ringing unlisted number
two phones ringing it begins again
Ringing phones! Very 20th century. Voice of Humphrey bogart, in a Lonely place, somehow is how im reading this one. Lude!
