We have curated a special list of poems that are perfect to share at your Thanksgiving table, including “Perhaps the World Ends Here,” by U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo —the first Native American poet to serve in this esteemed role— which ends: “At this table we sing with joy, with sorrow. We pray of suffering and remorse. We give thanks./ Perhaps the world will end at the kitchen table, while we are laughing and crying, eating of the last sweet bite.”
