Meeting Of The Minds Poem by Dorsey Baker

Bob is coming down the stairs
he is walking slowly
as if he fears
reaching the bottom of them!
He knows she is waiting
for him
at the table
she wants to talk to him
he already knows what the
subject of the conversation
will be about
and at the table
she will be watching his hands
she will be following his eyes
she will be careful this time
but she will not be afraid
and she will not become a victim
again
she is now armed
with the power of courage!
