After Billy Collins
The phone rang.
It was Regret calling, again.
“You should have called, you should have called
and told me, you should have said how you felt,
what it was about, and how things were misunderstood.
You should have called.”
All right! All right! I’ll phone. I’ve got the number here.
But it’s too late, there’s no one there to answer.
Regret will call again.
