Thanksgiving Dinner

Father glared menacingly,
carving knife in hand, while
Mother only cried into her napkin.
Auntie Matilda swooned,
face first into the gravy,
much to her son's chagrin.
Most of us just sat,
open mouthed,
the day Caroline admitted
that she was Republican.

    Totally unexpected ending. Looks like Caroline is an outlaw now.

    We know tensions would be high at a family holiday dinner. The punchline was brilliant.

    And that's why I try to avoid politics at family dinners. :)
