“Ooooh! ” <br />“Ooooh! ” <br /> <br />Radio singing to <br />itself continuously <br /> <br />though there is <br />no one <br /> <br />to listen <br />except some <br /> <br />coffee cups <br />(one overturned) <br /> <br />& some soggy <br />Tiramisu. <br /> <br />The radio sings <br />supremely <br /> <br />unable to control <br />itself. <br /> <br />Meanwhile <br />halfway across town <br /> <br />& just <br />(in time) <br /> <br />...baby is <br />born. <br /> <br />“My baby love... <br />...my baby love! ” <br /> <br />The radio sings <br />to anyone <br /> <br />who will listen.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-happening-for-onelia/
