it’s about being the weaver,
the one who darns
incomplete yarn into scraps
of humanity
someone who works
under constant cannon fire,
bobbing in and around
a boardwalk of stationary verbs
shot at dragster speed
one who can brush off
human chemical spill
& polish abrasive
down to a spit-shine
the weaver -
who spins all air
translucent

yes I would agree that every family has a peacemaker and in every family there is a trouble maker as well, or so I believe. Your words have spun a wonderful piece with the use of the wordbank, very impressive.
Thank you for entering.
Best of luck to you!

I like what you did with the bank. You are so talented. In my family I don't know that we have a peacemaker...lol. It seems we all make trouble even when we don't try. Trina.
