{steeple-chase}
When I tell my grandmother
I’m writing about her, she says
Will it be fiction? Will it have horses?
Who could possibly be interested?
We are eating boiled ham and cabbage.
She’s into the Bordeaux I uncorked.
Her hands can’t work the screw. I never know

In Anglo-Norman Interest means; different plus important.
In old French, damage, loss. In medieval Latin, compensation
from debtor’s defaulting. This is not about money
or loss or debt.
We trot, canter, gallop.
