once, just to see what would happen,

i left my phone number in every mailbox

around the neighborhood.

then i walked to other neighborhoods,

and put my number in those mailboxes too.

along with my number i wrote,

do you remember the name of the girl you kissed in middle school?

or maybe you’re hoping your husband won’t get drunk tonight.

tell me, are you falling apart as quickly as me?

some people wanted to know what i looked like.

others said hello then abruptly stopped speaking.

most callers, however, simply said:

yes.
