Bunches of dilligent selling People

Lacking every sense of honesty

Attacking the common thinking

Cronically with colourfull offers

Knowlegde wiped out by all means

.

Wishbone cracking Thursday

Evidently faking best of family

Eradicating bad memories

Kindly payed with heart blood.

Author´s Note

I am a Dane. In Denmark we have no tradition of Thanksgiving. The whole thing of celebrating Thanksgiving and Black Week as it has started to be called here is for me an absurdity. It is like standing on just one leg the whole time, even when you have two!
