Excellent - how you can put yourself in other's mind's so well...and clearly write what you find there

Well you've channeled some Jersey here :-)

I can hear the gum cracking and the Four Seasons playing in the background. Sounds like home to me. Wonderful sense of place and a sly, revealing poem.

though some of the references

Go over the top of my head without Google this is a slick piece of writing, I can hear her voice in high pitched angered frustration, the hammer blow punctuation of the exclamation points give her real diction. The word play on the final lines is great where it ain't sonny ha, the undertone of being alone is hammered home as an undercurrent but it's understated by your surface structure.

As always 5 stars. Your ability to humanize your characters as Ash stated is remarkable.
