What's a pool table?
A billiard table is that richest of metaphors,
by turns a theatre, an altar, touchstone, gauntlet, ritual ground, a gunfighter's high noon, a refuge, a verdant landscape for balls to scatter and rest in meaningful synchronicity, a classroom, a karma dance, mirror of moods, a guide and trusted friend... -- from grissim's "billiards"
