Thanksgiving

On this hallowed day
which Providence has given us,
I just want to take a moment to
thank all of the noble savages out there for your
most noble sacrifice.
Let me buy you a drink, Red
(as a sign of gratitude).

What's that? You've already got one?
Your own bottle of Mohawk?
Oh my goodness!
In that case, I'll take this one
for the both of us.

I've heard it said that
You can take the savage out of the plains
and the plains from the savage,
but you can't take the savage out of the savage.


So on this wonderful day
Drink up and give thanks
to our most noble savages
and their most generous,
Red Delicious
sacrifice.
Amen.


Hey! Save me a piece of that apple pie, dammit!
