Once there was a Phone Booth on West End Avenue
and 100th Street in New York City.
Everyone used it:
a businessman
always running late
for meetings,
a girl scout
who needed
more cookies,
a construction foreman
who needed cement,
a zookeeper who
lost his elephant,
a cellist who left
her cello in a taxicab,
a ballerina who wanted
to know if she got
the part in Swan Lake,
