THE CIRCLE

 

The circle at the end of the street
Has developed into more
Than just a place to meet
 
Plots are hatched there
Gossip is ubiquitous
Children play there
Hierarchy is ambiguous
 
Trees, bushes, or flowers
Benches, stumps, or chairs
Grass, dirt, or mulch
A lean-to, tent, or hutch
 
Disagreements about what’s desirable
Has many factions looking to win
There’s even an alumni association
Of former residents weighing in
