Eat a Turkey, Kiss a Goat.



Accept invitations from far-flung, soul friends

Fly north for the winter

Wink at the feathery juggernaut overheard

Camera snuggle with wild abandon

When your heart is a salty pretzel

And your mind occasionally shudders at the mysterious, winding future

A future as fleeting as the present, as precious as the past

Think of splattered bright gold paint on a canvas

How it mimics a dripping ray of brilliant sun

How it materializes a five year old’s wonder

Listen as your leather boots lightly crackle the frosted grass

As you glide across the acreage of a charming property you can’t afford

With your beautiful, dark-skinned lover on your heels, never close enough

Laugh at diminutive ears on a noisy, round-bellied goat

Tilt at the waist

Pucker up
