In my garden, a buzz in my pocket
a text
from Mary Jane on the plane
"[ewe] [bug] me ..."
3 dots. Blank.
3 dots. Blank.
I wait.
3 dots ... blank.
I reply:
"[?] do [eye] [bug] you??"
Pause.
3 dots.
'u r not here i miss u michigan will be cold & alien without u"
I snap a California poppy hit send
and say
"this [flower] is magic Cali [sun] 2 keep [ewe] warm
sweet [bug]

Three dots...
