No point keeping specialized contacts 

that don’t connect anymore. 
 
It’s just the favorites. Dream 16. 
Meant to be easy references.
 
Aunt Becky stays. Naturally.
 
The Behavioral Health Consultants
are the first to go- never that useful. 
 
Brianna stays. Always welcome.
 
Catholic Access Services, fallen from favor.
 
Next in line: Dad.
 
I can’t explain this order. 
His name stayed there, 
though I believe he was 
the first saved with a star.
 
It’s not frequency of contact: 
nightly calls and morning texts. 
 
Hold my hand for this, could you?
He must go the way of the dead-end
consultants and services. Not
because he wasn’t helpful, 
but that number is no longer
how I reach
either of my parents.
