Poems from the R.M. Dolin novel, “The Dangling Conversation”
Accept The Lie
I see things as plain as
sunlight in a forest,
as clear as
her flat line smile
that says nothing at all
while revealing truths
too painful for words.
Rather than press the issue,
I chose to accept
the lie
I want so desperately to believe.
From chapter 8 of the R.M. Dolin novel, “The Dangling Conversation.” Kyle painfully confesses that he knows his relationship is Nadia is strained even though he can’t allow himself to accept the obvious.
