Stuck


I’m stuck in the dessert.

Where do I go? Do I

Go left? Do I go right?

It’s just me and my phone.

Who can I call? My mother,

my father, my sister, my

brother. Or should I just call 911?

As I wait to get rescued

the tunes of the phone

kill the time.

I’m stuck in the dessert

Why so sweltered?

Who can I call?

Maybe it’ll be Jesus

1-800-PRAISE-THE LORD.
