Where are you

Irene Grandi growls Italian love songs
as a backdrop for this conversation

90 minutes of "That's so true" and "You know what else?" and "What do you mean" and "I feel the same way" barrel from the other end of the reciever


Rivers of words are leaking through the earpiece

But where are you?

Where are you?

Where are you?

The metal absence of your presence
The heavy presence of your absence

Men who love to listen and a girl who loves to talk
Men with things to say and a girl eager to listen
A dangerous recipe
Don't you think?

And in the midst of it all I still want you
I want the food they feed to be fed to me by you
But where are you?

Where
Are
You
