Oh, Frank. This is marvelous. I am so sorry I did not see it earlier. I am the poorer for having missed it, and the richer for finally seeing it.
Thank you for sharing.

Not even free turkey dinner nor Macy’s grand 95th Thanksgiving Day Parade will lift their heavy spirits. …

GRACE
Pass me the holiday turkey, peas / and the delicious stuffing flanked / by buttered potatoes with gravy / since I’ve said grace with plenty ease / for the good food received I’ve thanked / my Maker who’s found me worthy. // It seems that unlike the many of those / in the unlucky Third World nation / I’ve been found by God deserving / to not have to endure the awful woes / and the stomach wrenching starvation / suffered by them with no dinner serving. // Therefore hand over to me the corn / the cranberry sauce, fresh baked bread / since for my grub I’ve praised the Lord / yet I need not hear about those born / whose meal I’ve been granted instead / as they receive / naught of the grand hoard.
