Troy, I like the familiar moment portrayed here, but omit line one to reveal a potential distraction in the remainder of the poem. Sometimes a single line will leap out and dominate the poem’s true intent, as line 2 does. -just a thought Reply

final farewell, tears:
the voice on the terminal intercom
crackles
i did experience moment like this.
with each goodbye
i utter, her face
stiffens
green, blue
red, yellow, and white –
