Model 500 Poem by Ima Ryma
Model 500
Model 500 telephone,
I was the standard model made
By Western Electric, black tone
Was only available shade.
Ma Bell did loan my kind out to
Customers, and only phone that
The customers could use to do
Calling up another to chat.
This was the rule Ma Bell enforced
Up until 1984
When Ma Bell had to get divorced,
Her monopoly was no more.
So what, you ask, happened to me?
In a museum I now be.
