Sit at the Table

Pablo Picasso, Guitar on a Table, 1920, at the Menil Collection

Sit at the table.

Let’s place our offerings
Scatter them.

Let them pile up and mingle

What do we prepare for ourselves?
For each other?
For folks not yet met?

Questions and answers
Talents and artistry
Hopes and dreams

We struggle to find one hour
Where we can sit for the purpose of
Sharing our offferings

What else could possibly
Feed us better than this

Come, sit at the table.
