Hey
More than a text message
More than three letters
simple punctuation
More than just t h a t
      it’s a distress call
(check the subtext,
it's a secret)
“hey”

translates
• so many
• different
• ways
a craigslist add for company
but less desperate/public/subtle
and more needy
hey is I’m dying
hey is I love you
h e y  is   I     don’t     know     how
                                                             ­          to go on anymore and

                                                           ­                                    I need you and
                                                             ­                                           please
                                                          ­                                please
                          ­                                                   please

don’t forget me because I need someone to remember
