Soulmonger's Thanksgiving

Ungrateful chattel,
Munching on every minute

Of every day, lest you forget
The hand that feeds you,
Give thanks

For all that is given,
All shall be sold,
All carted away.

  1. I have an odd relationship with thanksgiving, from so far away. A sort of culture shock.

    Your words resonate with my experience, but then how am I to know? We do not celebrate Thanksgiving in Australia, we only hear about it.

  2. I can well appreciate how you approach Thanksgiving Day, since it is an American tradition and remains so remote for those people who have never experienced it. You would probably get a similar reaction if you mentioned "Vegemite" to someone who has never lived in Australia!
