Fotophone
Eleise has a fotofone
That's black & blue & red all over
Just like those old stupid jokes
Your older cousin
Ripped off when you were
Smoking up in his loft bedroom
While your aunt and mom
Drank instant and looked out the kitchen window.
Between sighs
Those two old girls lived their holistic childhoods
In one afternoon,
Just like they did each week
All weak kneed from their factory jobs
And uncles who loved drink
More than them
Were oftentimes the target
Between episodic moments
Between teenage fancies & pregnancies
Taboo movements like some psycho genius
Opera director wrote the whole damn life scenario
For your mom, your aunt, your future wife and the card games
You had at the old Knights of Columbus hall
Between 3-9-1981 and now.
I have a fotofone
Made of Styrofoam
& I take it out and polish it
Whenever Xmas times hit
Like broken hearts
In a blizzard.
