Bound by blood and history
the family gathers, a festive day,
calendar-dictated reunion time.
Sibling rivalries decades old
make one-upsmanship
an octogenarian pastime,
while simple comments, innocent,
press buttons to trigger fireworks.
Decision time, and one must lead
to end the senseless charade.
What will you do as you sit to dine?
Do you pass the crap with platters
or at long last move past the crap?
