The sun sets on conversation
Germany, Massachusetts, Kentucky
all present
laser-focused.

The debate:
nature vs. nurture.
Harvard vs. Homeschool
Men vs. Women;
an argument for the ages.

Eyes dart back and forth;
Small fidgets punctuate counterpoints.
We say,

“Well–“
                            “…but what about-“
even though we all agree.

A prize,
the whole game was.
Nobody really made
it to the whole truth anyway.

“Good to meet you!”
      “Same to you.”
“Have a good night.”
      “You as well.”

I’m so grateful to live a life like this.
