Called Me Twice

there are certain rules
that people follow

and they claim to have
no beliefs of any
given subject
it’s just that they choose
not to think about
their beliefs and
they choose not to think

but I know what people
think when they think of me

and I know that this one
person says he’s concerned
but my phone isn’t ringing
and yes, he called me once
since I’ve been trapped
in this cage

he hasn’t called me twice
