TURKEY DAY
 

let's give thanks then

to all the turkeys of our past

the ultimate sacrifice

how else to allow for winter coming

celebrating with thanks giving

our bounty

now is a good time

to honor this body of love

dear woman warrior

demanding answers

the war

is over when we agree

it has indeed been a very long road

thru dry desert and winter storm

next
