It’s the time of the year when families get together across the miles, across the generations, and across the political spectrum. For better or for worse, that was the inspiration for this Typewriter Rodeo poem.
Family During The Holidays
there will be food
there will be gifts
there will be air mattresses
there will be sore lower backs
there will be memories
there will be bad movies
there will be booze
there will be not enough pillows
there will be discussions
there will be DISCUSSIONS
there will be kisses
there will be hugs
and if you’re all on your best behavior,
there will not be blood
