The phone's recorder beeps every 11 seconds
I've timed the lapses. Midnight and still beeping
Messages easy to ignore. I'm vacant, it's easy
Beyond the beeps, a ticking clock
beyond the ticking clock...wind
beyond the wind and snow that's falling
a periodic flush of toilet
Like a nun of cloistered cell
I've been faithful to my 12 by 7,
awaiting to expire... not just yet, I reckon,
Else why would I be getting hungry?
Prolonged recessions can lead to a depression
A depression prolonged beyond a reasonable time
will bring down the little men from Mars
with their little picks and shovels, and their smiling little faces
