Merce Cunningham’s father
delights in gardening.
Each
year he has
had to move the shrubs
back from the driveway
to protect them
from being run over
when Mrs. Cunningham backs
out.
One day Mrs.
Cunningham in
backing out knocked
down but did not hurt
an elderly
gentleman who had been
taking a stroll.
Getting
out of her car and
seeing him lying on
the sidewalk,
Mrs. Cunningham said,
“What
are you doing there?”
