GYPSY-ISH COVERSATION
Sometimes I have entire coversations in metaphor. This one was about how I move from place to place to place. It went like this.
Rolling stones gather no moss but they sure take one heck of a beating on the way down the hill. Then my grandma says a rolling stone doesn't put down any roots either. I said I have roots. They're just shallower and more widespread than most peoples'. They're the oak trees with the 25 foot deep 5 feet around the base of the tree roots and I'm the shrub with the 3 foot deep roots that spread out in a 20 foot radius.
