Memior

I remember now

we were driving

and that song came on that I hate

but I didn’t tell you because we

had just met and I was

still on my best behavior.

I remember now

it was a Monday and you posed

another ultimatum – them or me

and I sat quietly a while until

you asked again, with a well

and a tell me.

And you took my wallet

Out of my open purse

And snapped my bank card

See! you said See!,

I was serious

I remember now

I was scared.
