Speak Up

by

Dina Dinsmoor

He didn’t know what to say
the obvious fact was separated people shouldn’t date
wasn’t it
Eve had been sipping champagne next to him and Robert
toasting Robert’s eyes
how blue they are she had said
He felt a bit uncomfortable when Robert pulled out his wallet
it wasn’t about who was paying the bill
it was the picture
Half slipping out of his plastic wallet frame
the little girls face said
divorce causes sadness, pain
Eve looked over at him
smiling said, what’s the matter?
