I’ve always liked Thanksgiving even when
Noah’s kindergarten teacher sent us a note
about Native Americans suggesting we
change the holiday not Pilgrims I liked
just people eating together I have
always been thankful for people
eating together and on Thanksgiving that’s what we did
especially in the country room for infinite
people enough dishes because of all those flea markets
although it is still Thanksgiving and I am
glad to be here today without Covid without
That President soon still I am in this apartment no one can come inside
we will eat a good meal as always read a poem or two
give thanks that this will not last forever that something resembling
democracy will happen in January we will go for a walk
in the park still beautiful cold does not make the park less beautiful
we are grateful and lucky and know for us all there will be next year.
