Actor
-Given THAT turkey, say they, the sonofabitch can really act?
-A script my international film career followed explicitly.
-Well, you’re distinguished! But no one says that,
because of all the bad shows.
-They do in the theater. Feel it across the footlights!...so to speak.
-What’s up there?
-Just did Lear, Claremont Experimental.
-Wow! Interesting!
-You’d think, but...more bad luck with Typhoon Inez for opening.
-No!
-Producers threw in the sponge.
-Hafta be humongous one for typhoon.
-Such a bad joke! But probably called for.
-Sorry. But one and done for Lear?
-Not completely. Cast got it on their phones.
-Quite a juggling act! You come offstage and quick grab your phone?
-No need, they’re in the script.
-Uh?...what sound a modern turkey make?
-I’ll put it on Speaker.

Executive Choice
The President pardoned a turkey for Thanksgiving.
Talk among the rest agreed he picked the worst one.
He knew, of course, that it wasn’t the first time
he had failed in the judgement of turkeys.

Turkeys
Did Sinatra want to buy
all the prints? Hopeless
in our digital world,
where hauls persist
from Rye to Nome,
& clouds above,
of our own
Kissing Bandits
& randy loves, wild
messes & raw
transgressions.
Send funny cards
to forget.
