THE MAD GIRL IS NOT AS UNHOOKED AS SHE SEEMS

by Lyn Lifshin

gets his “your
note, it made my
day, be in touch”
message on her
machine, feels
as if something
put a string of
lights under her
skin. She plays
it 4 times, does
n’t know why his
drawl, half Boston,
a little south,
some Indiana pulls
her so she’s ice
on the Cohuahuilla
Desert at noon, no
thing on her as it
was since she
swallowed whatever
he had
