• Edward Field: 'The Telephone'
• My happiness depends on an electric appliance

  I do not mind giving it so much credit
• Life in this city being what it is, each person is separated from friends
• Telephone

  My joy
• The telephone tells me that I am in the world and wanted

  It rings and I am alerted to love or gossip
• Without the telephone

  I was like a bear in a cave, drowsing through a shadowy winter
• The telephone rings

  Spring has come
• I pick up the receiver

  I am hungry again for the human voice and the good news of friends
