Lila wrote this thought-provoking poem on the back of an envelope in 1984.
Breaking His Heart at the Used Book Sale (An overheard conversation behind me.) I’d like to get that set of encyclopedias for $40. Halved, that’s $20. Why? To use in that one class. Where would you put it? In the den. There’s not enough room. Who would use it? We all can. We already have a set. But not this one. Love, Lila Written in 1984
