Kentuckiannna on my Yankee Cell Phone

Electronic tones singing Miles From Our Home
erupt over the music and road noise,
Belly a proud marquee on the tiny silver screen.
Thumbing the ANSWER button, the vocal musing
of my favorite mass of contradictions fills my ear,
Kentucky and Texas blending brashly in her voice.
The current stop on her quest
to know what friends are thinking,
I answer her questions, but mostly I listen.
A boisterous hillbilly cackle
delimits the droll effusions of her narrative
as she paints an aural picture of a world uniquely hers.
Smiling, I return her parting assurance of love
before hearing that final drawled-out "Bye!"
