I was still waking up unhappily
Someone was screaming into the phone
In high shrill hysterics
Impossible to comprehend at first
Before I could formulate a response
I saw a black and white motion picture image
A man in fedora and overcoat
Slapping that frenzied face
Get a hold of yourself, man.
Clipped and stoic sounding, not cruel - a favor really
Just to help bring you back down here into your shoes
After all, we're all on the verge of a complete freak out, brother
In spite of it all, the spontaneous internal film noir gave me a chuckle
