Ruminating in repast


The family dines
on a round brown oak
slab
together
each night they live
together
a universe
is spread across
the Milky way

Facing each other
they nourish
each other
beneath the chandelier sun
aglow over the bounty
they need not kill to survive

they talk-the teens

Thank you
for all
you do

The family got full
together
knowing home
intimately
the round world
fit into their dining room.
