Thanksgiving: Devour the Anthem

Feathers plucked before the feast,
An eagle lies across the stone.
Our hunger’s grip, its need released,
Feathers plucked before the feast.
A sacred symbol, now deceased,
Hallowed eyes are swallowed whole.
Feathers plucked before the feast,
An eagle lies across the stone.
