We Have to Talk
by Jane E PearceYou blew away
like a tumble weed,
and the letter came-
"too
emotionally
involved"
too
emotionally
involved?
What a cop out-
"nobody
said
anything"
nobody
said
anything.
Is that why
in my dreams
many full grown
oaks away,
I look at you,
put my hand
on your arm,
and say,"we have to talk"?
