Cold Turkey
Cold turkey never tasted sweet. If you see me smile then I am probably lying to you. I am so used to that mask it looks natural. I hide because I don't trust you. You are there for me but I think it's because of the performance. The shallows are where we live, everything is...

‘I’m a failed Muslim. I drink raki now,’ he says. A bottle twinkles on the upturned orange box. On the unmade bed, a punch-drunk pillow lurches in a sea of ruptured quilts. ‘I never pray,’ he adds, as hawk-eyed Ataturk retreats to an ascetic frame and glowers at the room. And we...

Turkey Alive
Well, I listened to Benjamin Zephaniah, And I kept my young turkey alive. We had a really good blast last Christmas, With hip-hop and reggae and jive. We opened our presents real early, Taking selfies and having a laugh. I bought Turkey some really cool trainers, And he bought me some gloves and a scarf. Then we ate a lovely fat dinner. I cooked...

Premium Member Twas the Night Before Christmas
Twas the night before Christmas late dinner. Table set, waiting for Conner, a beginner. Wondering which turkey will be a winner. Wild round neighborhood, non any thinner. Turkeys saw the peaceful neighbor coming, Plain funny, stomping heavy, and humming. Toms all disappeared and hid while thumbing Energetic to all the hens to stop chumming. Neighbor looked all through the woods becoming Fully stressed...

The history of our ancestors, wild turkeys, explained an old wise Tom, is that it’s filled with far more bad than good memories. First, their numbers were never killed as often or as many as are today. Second, and this is irrefutable, they were healthier because a natural diet made kept them lean. not like today’s overweight monstrosities. Lastly, and this is...

Premium Member a circling turkey
I saw a turkey circling, high above Manhattan his bronze and copper feathers ripped in the sun, and it looked like it was having an awful lot of fun. He looked proud, in those clouds—majestic and delicious, I could picture him sprawled out, on our Thanksgiving dishes. Then I thought, chastisingly, “Wow, in a way, that’s kind of vicious.” I opened...

Tom the Terror-Turkey
Have you not heard of the legend of Terror Turkey Tom? Who roams the woods punishing those who do Thanksgiving wrong? The bird with an unending hate for those folks that he sees putting up their Christmas décor exceedingly early. None now how the bird for like this, though many have their say, some thing a Christmas-hating witch cursed him to be this way. Others think he’s...
