wheeling the old radio dial back and forth
The a.m. radio morning static
calls to me in staccato bursts.
Voices come through erratic,
"mumble...something...firsts..."

I am looking for 80's rock
or morning talk show hosts,
instead I get noise to mock;
voice fragments and ghosts.

I switch to the f.m. side,
hoping for some company,
but all across the band wide,
nothing at all comes to me.

The a.m. radio morning static
calls to me in staccato bursts.
Voices come through erratic,
"mumble...something...firsts..."
