You said I'm a stranger. That's selective. We swapped virginities. I painted your home, And sat, and sipped With your RFC Nandad; Carried he and his Lady to the mausoleum; Listened to her stories about Eleanor and Henry. Bubba (a name you gave your Grandmother) Sold me her car for a dollar. I couselled your mother back into your heart; At peril, tried to sneak your nephew back to your sister. Your great-uncle gave us his Florida condo for a week, I drank tea from a saucer at your Thanksgiving dinner. I took the gun out of your father's mouth. A stranger! Tell the girls that. Tell the grandkids Granda is a stranger. Truth is strange. Fiction estranges.
