The Turkey Is Too Dry

often
various punctuation,
leave their strange hats
in the small
humbleness 
of my cloak room.

usually i have
a small
folding table 
in the kitchen 
set up for thirteen.

they each sit
& drink 
from the 
cuppletts of sound.

their plates
are heaped  with
the dumplings of symbols.

punctuation
always waits for
the final image
to come hot
from the oven.

Often the punctuation
coughs & complains 
that the turkey
is too dry.
