Giving Thankfully
This year,
for Thanksgiving,
I have decided to fast
to cut down on food waste
and to enhance my appreciation
for why I need to eat
and the divine gift of life when I do.

That's such a deep thought...
But if you fast, and there's food, and do not eat,
wouldn't that be making more food waste by you not eating?

you are so on it sourmelon. the poem is an idealization of a moment to foster a perspective. i am going to eat my fair share because of exactly what you just said. may all your meals bring nourishment!
