When Dude Spoke Out Loud To His Father

It was the way you raised me, I said.

Yes, you’re right, he said.

Until you said it. Now it’s your problem, he said.

My problem? I said.

Your problem, he said.

Jesus christ, that was a fast turnabout! I said.

Jesus is quick when he needs to be. . . He said.

Oh. . .  I said, many years later.

Thank you, friend.

Barry out.
