"You have cold turkey." They said I never knew what they meant by that. "I have no such thing; I'm a vegetarian." They said it has nothing to do with meat though... Yes I'm cold and shivering, But why 'cold turkey'? "Your skin feels clammy: like a turkey." They said, But I wouldn't know; never eaten one in my life.

Cold Turkey
it is such a sad thing that people **** these beautiful beasts, i say to myself as my eyes lock onto the mirrored tawny frames of the animals only a short distance from me. they did not run yet, one’s graceful neck turned in my direction (was it thinking the same of me?) time stopped still on that calm dirt street; three deer in a row before they gallop away and i know this is what it means to feel free.
