A Round Table

King Arthur had the right design For when ideas abound Discussion goes much smoother At a table that is round. When more than four sit down to talk At tables long or square The conversation’s aimed at who Sits in the closest chair. So little groups will splinter off And miss the latest news Of those down at the other end, Affecting points of views. But when the table’s round, all those Participate as one And everyone’s caught up before The meal is even done.
