“Do you prefer blinds or shades?”

“Really it’s a toss-up, though my cats prefer blinds”

“Ah, I see.  Is it because they love to peer through the slats?”

“People like to think that.  No, it’s because they like to break off the ends”

“Entropy and gravity.  The study of feline physicists everywhere.”

Love was definitely too strong of a word

It was kind of possibly closer to admiring or appreciating

Knowing they were all related he gave up and confessed his feelings to her

Everyone laughed when he said to her “I prefer you.  A lot.”

Divide (an acrostic poem)

Debating merits is a noble cause

If done in good faith, listening to other’s argument

Verifying your stance is what you want to defend

Instead, today we prefer to find our tribe, our island

Denying that the other side might have something to add

Enabling the feedback to build walls that opposing views can not scale  

List (an acrostic poem)

Lining items in a row

It can be rather intimidating

So instead I prefer to throw them into a grab bag

Then when I pull out the next task to do if feels spontaneous
