A Turkey Speaks

sanpete  turkey 300x254 Happy Thanksgiving Day From Those Who Kick ButtI have never understood
why anyone would
roast the turkey
and shuck the clams
and crisp the croutons
and shell the peas
and candy the sweets
and compote the cranberries
and bake the pies
and clear the table
and wash the dishes
and fall into bed
when they could sit back
and enjoy a hamburger.
