Thanksgiving season gives me time to contemplate
On fundamental natures, we as humans –
Thankfulness for all that we appreciated
Thanking those that thus participated
People, animals and plants
And, ultimately, God
It is our deep necessity
Reflecting life’s uncertainties
To cling to something absolute
That we believe infallible
A person, book or deity
It’s through such faith that we gain strength
To deal with life’s vicissitudes
Faith is our path to God
But where there’s faith there’s also doubt
If people like us don’t agree
And worship not our deity
They must convert or force them out
Else gone infallibility
Pack animals we are like wolves
We either lead or we are led
Just who and how a leader’s picked
This is the field of politics
Depending who is in our pack
They’re either like us or they aren’t
Our pack is broad or it is not
We either tolerate or not
The arc of human history
Increasing pack diversity
