Hi babe, he called me early. What happened to your other baby, I txt him? She's not talkig to me anymore, he say. She says I'm nuts. Why?
She been listening to the radio too much, he say, an she think that you singing your song to me. That's ridiculous, I told him. You don't love me do you? It not important if I love you or not, he say, what is important is that you are happy. Yes, I'm happy, I tell him. What u wan?
I just ring to say happy birthday, he said. Kiss, thanks, I say. Wish you could be here for it. Did you get my present, he say? What is it I ask? I'm not opening them until I've had a quick shower. Mine is the one in brown paper, he say, I sent it to the house, and I put a page on my web site for you.
I pressed the fire control and ahead of me rockets streaked through the sky.....WHAAM!
Kiss,
Thanks, I say. You going to have a big party, he ask? Of course, I say, everyone's coming over later for lunch. Save me some, he say. I'm really sorry I can't be there. You going to get dressed up properly?
Of course, I say. What you going
to wear, a special party dress? I haven't decided yet I say' I'll try to finish and probably see you later on, he say. Ohhh...Alright...I say.
What are you doing that's so important you can't be here, I say? Its a surprise, he tell me, you'll have to wait. You bringing it over tonight? I can't say yet, he say. It better be worth it, I tell him. What you been doing, he ask me? Nothing much, I say. You been good, he ask?
What do yo mean, I say? You managing to look after those two husbands and all those grand children without me? You've only been gone two days, I say, there hasn't been time. Two days, he ask me? Is that all it is? It seems more like 2,000 yea+rs. 2,000 yea+rs, I ask? That was tiger, he tell me. It a clever tiger to goa shift+ rs, I tell him. He just a big pussycay, he say, he's playing
with my mouse. Your mouse, I ask him, are you sending me this by computer? Yes, he say. What you think? It sounds as though you are talking to me, I say. I can hear your voice. The wonders of modern communications, he says. Can you see me as well? No, I can't I say. Me neither, he say. Everything is black. I can see the whole room... and there's nobody in it. I'm in here some-
where I say. Try to let your eyes accustom themselves to the light. I'll have to use my imagination, he say. What are you wearing? I'm wearing a green tank top which is falling off one shoulder as I lean forward to take a photograph with my blackberry. Which shoulder? My right shoulder, I say. Thanks.
Don't mention it, I say. Can I see your tatoo, he ask? Can't you see it I say? It is obvious enough. What colour is your hair today, he ask? Today it is fair, I say. No it isn't he say. There is nothing fair in love.
Do you mean everything, I ask? Allright then, its bloody red. Red is it, and I suppose your dress is white. You guessed.
