And the Turkey Leg Beats Ad Infinitum
Brian Dickson


​My old self stuffed 
in a boot 
tucked in a turkey 
bought from a local farm
with natural open space,
where I visited 
natural open space,
where I fed it grain,
slept on a cot,
shot it the next morning. 

What a joke of a jake, 
my new self would say
to my old self.

Come on pilgrim, my new-
ness says. Let’s make 
progress with your soul, 
half-baked boot
ready to roll.
