Family gabfests are apt to range swiftly from one topic to another: memories shared;
a touch at politics; who is doing what, when, and where. An endless discussion that
leaps from math to kids to computers to books …
our conversation moves
from stool to rocking chair
picks up trailing fingers
curls over one son’s head
then weaves arabesques of laughter
over the coffee table
until it drops into a cave
under the chesterfield
to be eaten by cats
