I Didn’t Say No
I know I changed it for him. And lately I’ve started wondering how many of us do this. Not big things. Just tiny adjustments. A sentence at breakfast. A carefully timed question. There is information sitting quietly behind my eyes that he will never see. And sometimes it tells me, with terrifying precision, when to mention mini golf and when to shut up. And sometimes it makes winning an argument so easy that there never has to be an argument at all. That should bother me more than it does. It does bother me. Just, apparently, not enough to spend Saturday at Lake Mercer.
