Tonight's Poet Corner: Predictive Text

Predictive Text
by Belinda Roddie

Tonight is going to be in
midsummer, the better for
you and your writer,
who is running late to the game,
from you and I. I think I'm justified
in the morning. We have been on
your phone in the middle of the
night. Night and the thoughtful
conversation are missing the point
of my life. That's fine. Maybe we should
do it again for the fun of the day. Right
now, I'm sorry for everything. Okay to tell
her? A Greek tragedy of the year progresses
to be a rough time. Would you want it framed
in my room? Or just need anything else from
my room? Predictable to be able to
make sure you're happy.
