Ours is a house
with room for everyone. Family
defined in the largest way
and you are all welcome to be right here
to try one of Khanyi’s three signature
Thanksgiving drinks all named from
Lucille’s Bitch writing prompt:
Bubbly Bitch the Thanksgiving favorite
proseco apple cider fresh apple garnish
and people joined us to eat
Noah’s fried turkey Chesray’s mac and cheese
Khanyi’s au gratin to hear poems and then
Bill our oldest guest
reciting a racy limerick (if I remembered
I’d tell you I’ll ask Bill
and write it down) to hear people
discuss what community is
and now today to write it down.
And the leftovers are delicious
My favorite part of Thanksgiving are the stories people tell…yesterday’s stories included family name origins, how did you choose that career, how it was “back in the day”, collecting vinyl, and what have you knitted recently!
