Thanksgiving Satire

Gravy and potatoes
mashed but not lumpy
turkey and stuffing
soft but tasty

It’s Thanksgiving!
Brown, orange, and yellow
Turkey, cranberry, and biscuits

Turkey is raised
to be plump and juicy
sent to slaughter
oh, joy! it’s another turkey!

It’s Thanksgiving!
Brown, orange, and yellow
Turkey, cranberry, and biscuits

Homeless man starving
belly empty and smelly
“get a job!”
try christ, he’ll save you!  He’ll give you a turkey!

It’s Thanksgiving!
Brown, orange, and yellow
Turkey, cranberry, and biscuits

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
We stole your land!
we stole your buffalo!
you’re the savages, we’re your saviors!

It’s Thanksgiving!
Brown, orange, and yellow
Turkey, cranberry, and biscuits

Yummy!
