Fantastic! There are so many situations where this feeling applies...for me all the time because I hate answering the phone!
Tragically accurate. '...frames the now' is such a stunningly poignant turn of phrase, makes the whole moment ring. Stellar work as always, my friend!
As an introvert with social anxiety, all phone calls feel this way for me 😅😅 Loved your Haiku!
ugh...perfectly said
Fabulous work Lamar!
WOW> LOVE THIS LINE > > > > her gut plummets before
Yeah, some calls are dreadful. Great haiku, Lamar!
Right on the brink, waiting for some sort of news. Not knowing what to expect or hope for. Definitely a heavy moment. Great haiku!
