The Turkey's Revenge

The Turkey’s Revenge The lights went out…..slowly …….at first then …….they dropped like flies …………in a sudden frost. Immobilized …..succumbing ……to the inexorable end. Slowing movements …..lowered respiration rates …Soft sighs of satiation Building….in a muted rumble ….rising to a roaring …..Snore…. Parades went by …….games were played ….taunting texts unanswered Pictures.. ……..will be posted ……..of the Turkey’s Revenge ..the bane of Tryptophan’s Napping victims ………..dreaming ……of uncut pies …………awaiting their fate.
