all on my phone.
I remember
standing in a green concrete box
with little windows
Winding a handle and lifting the heavy handset
To speak to an operator
in the post office on top of the Rock in Ballymote
Who would in turn stick a jack into a hole
and connect me to another Post office somewhere else
and would connect me to another wind up phone somewhere
Miles away
I felt so sophisticated then
