Even With no Wish Bone
Janet Kuypers
(11/21/11, puns in haiku)
one more Thanksgiving
for a vegetarian
with the meat eaters
they carve turkey, have
the veggies, even stuffing
laced with meat juices
hopefully it’s safe
To eat the mashed potatoes...
Thanksgiving is foul:
is bacon needed
baking green bean casserole?
Feigning smiles all day
we all give thanks, but
I’d wish for less cruelty,
even with no wish bone
