Voice Mail And Rice A-Roni Poem by Lonnie Hicks

Oh, voice mail.
Ok, I just wanted you to know
that when you come over
be ready
because I don't cook
or bake;
Think Inside The Box;
like Rice a-Roni or spaghetti.

And we can stay only a while
if you come early
because of my room mates-
the drive way-don't park.

Bob will be leaving for work
and he'll get blocked in.

Everything is so complicated.

No gifts please
especially flowers
I have this allergy thing
My old boy friend would always forget;

humm, guess I shouldn't mention old loves;
just mentioning them brings me up short.

I'm always emotional about people I love;
boys, boys boys.
Opps guess this voice mail is getting so long.
See you tonite.
Love Anita
Oh hi
didn't know you were there.
I was just leaving a message for you
Oh oh you can't come?
Oh, maybe some other time?
Right.
Voice Male.
