The Turkey Shot Out of the Oven
The Turkey Shot Out of the Oven
Jack Prelutsky
The turkey shot out of the oven
and rocketed into the air,
it knocked every plate off the table
and partly demolished a chair.
It ricocheted into a corner
and burst with deafening boom,
then splattered all over the kitchen,
completely obscuring the room.
It stuck to the walls and the windows,
it totally coated the floor,
there was turkey attached to the ceiling,
where there'd never been turkey before.
It blanketed every appliance,
it smeared every saucer and bowl,
there wasn't a way I could stop it,
that turkey was out of control.
I scraped and I scrubbed with displeasure,
and thought with chagrin as I mopped,
that I'd never again stuff a turkey
with popcorn that hadn't been popped.

I didn't have dessert either... Untill 10:00 last night when I finally became hungry again.
Then I ate a piece of pumpkin, pecan, and fruit and nut jello. All of which were topped with whipped cream. I did all of this while sitting in bed.
