….AREN'T YOU LUCKY YOU'RE NOT A TURKEY?….FINAL ACT

….this is just another day if you really come…

to think about it….but to turkeys in America….

this is the day…

when millions of them will be forced to face

Nero and get a capricious thumbs down...





and then be simply  slaughtered….

FOR WHAT ?…

that is the question….

…to be sold by the pound and be injected with some chemical

to prevent the carcass from decomposing…then entombed in

warehouse large coolers for the big day…





…then to be eaten….and take the mysterious journey
of getting sucked down the
esophagus in grinded form mixed with saliva…
(the way this giant lizard would swallow its prey…)


and continue the squeeze, stretch and squash motion 
...to the large and small intestines…
this process is called by the scientific community
as digestion…
and then when all its juices of proteins or whatever
had been squeezed out in molecular and atom size
form…as if that were not enough
...the travel get its final chapter of leaving the 
body with the aid of gravity and the human system
of rejecting waste….and the excretion button
is ordered without hesitation by the human brain…
the only sound that echoes in the white chamber…
is a big sigh of relief….SIGH... PLOK..SPLASH..
not necessarily in that order …
at this point the poor turkey would consider 
itself lucky if no gas is passed by…
(depending on how
many ounces or pounds was finished ) 
the big 
inconsiderate parasitic ape
 to celebrate what he calls
THANKSGIVING…
and then to consummate the final
act….
he pitilessly presses down the flush lever…
and down the poor turkey swirls
round and round into the abyss of
the unknown…
or what human civilization call
"the TOILET…"

The only thing the turkey is guilty of is
its inability to speak
…. the human language
so it is unable to reason out with the homo sapien about
…how they too…
... value their lives…
and would be willing to spend anything and everything 
to live for another minute, hour or day 
or month or year
….the way humans value and fight for their lives…

….well what can I say…
the French call it….
C'EST LA VIE


that's all for now folks!

p.s. "Enjoy your turkey!…."
