Because of when
As you
Work
Work
Work
A cousin comes
Up to you
Says
Why don't you
Talk?

Asks
Could you
Talk
If you wanted?

And you
Nod.

And he
Stays.

Talk then.
Just talk.

And uncle
Comes in.

Daddy
Why don't
They talk?

I dunno.
Maybe they're
Just
Thick.

Because of when
You feel
So
Angry
But
Say

Nothing.
