Oh Magical Turkey - Thanksgiving Poem

John Gold
Oh magical turkey,
You grant us excitement
You give us sleep
Nourish our bodies
Tax our restraints

Oh magical turkey,
You make us forget
we rather prefer chicken
we rather prefer pork

Oh magical turkey,
You inspire families
To gather and pray
Who forgot every other meal
We forgot every other day

Oh magical turkey,
You healed the anguish of planning
The strife between relatives
The ingratitude of limitless food
The concerns of our health

Thanks for the memories
Thanks for your sacrifice
Curse you for dirtying the dishes
Curse you for filling up the trash.
