'thank you worth saying' timothy r gates, 11/27/28

Turkey
nearly U.S. National bird
Buzzard too
Eagles soar
imagine plucking
an Eagle for holiday feasts
'thank you,' worth saying
whether eating
being eaten
or for the freedom
to bitch regarding
omnivorism gluttonous behaviorism.
Thank you.

'Smiles' timothy r gates, 11/26/2008

smiles
fly
too when
two
don't
sigh
apart
in art
in prose
in verse
in dance
in melody
in quietness
smiles
drive
away
garden's
hiss
when
it's
kick
ass
sweet
sweat.
