According to Joe



Hurry, only 31 more days!

Thanksgiving, what does it mean to me?

A celebration of humanity?

A time to hopefully encourage peace?

To share our bounty with a feast?

But let's not get too teary-eyed.

The holidays have a mercantile side.

Ads demand that we chop chop

And shop and shop and shop and shop.

Daily headlines inspire the poet in Joe Gedan, a retired U.S. magistrate judge who lives in Honolulu. His observations on the news appear on Sundays and Fridays.
