THANKSGIVING CAROLS
Some think Christmas
carols should not be
played in mid November.
What would Thanksgiving
carols be...?
turkeys screaming
'help me help me!'
GRAVY IN THE GRAVE
Unreported murder...
the evidence hidden....
Turkey's blood and fat
stirred into gravy.
A human stomach
was his grave
WHY?
Why do men cut
off turkeys' feet
before their heads?
Do they not mind
the watching eyes?
STIFFENING
The turkey's screams
they're stifling.
Not when his corpse
is stiffening
but when with rot
it's softening
do they begin
him stuffing.
TURKEYS' BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS
Gravy is the blood of murdered birds
mixed with the sweat of their uric acid
and fright,
with tears of agony stirred in...
along with some of their hacked off fat.
*
Footnote: J Coleman: "Dark meat takes
longer to cook than
white meat because of the moisture content
therefore often either the white is overcooked
and the dark ok or the dark is undercooked
and the white ok."
There are countless instances of food poisoning
from Thanksgiving and Christmas turkeys, because
of undercooking or of keeping leftovers too long.
THIS AMERICAN LIFE COVERAGE OF TURKEY FARMS AND SLAUGHTERHOUSES
When a storm comes.. they
climb on each other in fright.
and the ones on the bottom
suffocate.
In some factory farms
the fans are unprotected
and the turkeys fly into
them, shredding themselves.
In the slaughterhouse in which
30,000 birds a day are murdered
some have the job of
livehanging (hanging the
terrorized birds upside down.)
After the electric cutting
of the jugular comes
the scalder.. and the
blood room, then 6 picking
machines which literally
beat the feathers off the birds
.. then the feet are cutoff..
then to the eviscerating room
where the guts are pulled out..
next the heads are pulled off
.. followed by machines
vacuuming out the lungs
.. finally the packaging,
the stapling and
posting the weight stickers
(and then the blood
and urine go into the streams..
along with the female hormones
Antibiotics and in some cases
prions they contain..
while the lungs, guts,
heads, and feet go into
pet food and in some cases
become Mad Cow generating
illegal food for cows, sheep
pigs turkeys chickens fishes)
HE PRAYED FOR THE NAMELESS BIRD SITTING AT HIS TABLE
He sat at a table which had a decapitated gutted
defeathered cadaver of an innocent turkey, and wondered what his or
her name was..from whence he came
whom and what he loved? God bless the soul of the bird.. not only now
but going back in time to his concentration camp life and
his final awful embodied moments..
ARTICHOKE
They did the little
boy turkey named Art... choke
and then served his dead
body with artichokes
VIOLINS FROM THE VIOLENT TO THEIR VICTIMS
Some British farmers are playing
music to turkeys in factory
farms and at the slaughterhouses..
copying the Gestapo who played
classics as their victims
were prepared for the gas chambers..
were the turkey's leg bones
renamed drumsticks.. beating the time?
Did they render asunder
the 'wish' bones of his breast
THE DIFFERENCE AN S MAKES
Love turkeys
Love turkey
the former means protect them
the latter: turkey
the name of an objectifier
for a carcass cooked in fire
GENESIS FOOD
Pumpkin and pecan pies
peach and papaya pies
And sufficiently pied,
the piper can play.
DEPRAVITY
Is stuffing a corpse's
cavity
a form of unnoticed
depravity?
or eating body parts
they call gizzards
or eating the flesh
of captured lizards?
or eating 'giblets'
which are turkey guts
.. they think them pure
if garnished with nuts
WINDED WINGS?
When their wings
are ripped
off and eaten
can the birds fly?
WORLD PEACE
Does world peace begin
with our forks?
TURKEY RIGHTS
For what can turkeys
give thanks? Only that
the world daily has more
vegetarians, vegans
and fruitarians.
COSMIC UMPIRE, COME
No matter what
torture is done
to the fowl
few human umpires
have ever called
foul.
TURKEY TURNKEY
The year she could
no longer eat a turkey
became for her
soul.. an amazing turnkey
PARDON
One turkey a year
pardoned by a president.
... near White House West Wing
What was the turkey's
offense..
as millions of his fellows
have sliced off their
east and west wings
PARROT
Was the turkey bad?
said the parrot.
BOYCOTT BUTTERBALL
Answer Divine Love's call
and boycott Buterball

Wikipedia
"In October of 2012, a Mercy for Animals investigator documented a pattern of abuse and neglect at numerous Butterball turkey operations in North Carolina. The investigation revealed workers kicking and stomping on birds, dragging them by their wings and necks, and throwing turkeys onto the ground or on top of other birds; birds suffering from serious untreated illnesses and injuries, including open sores, infections, and broken bones; and workers grabbing birds by their wings or necks and violently slamming them into tiny transport crates with no regard for their welfare."
THOSE WHO HAVE A NONVIOLENT THANKSGIVING
1 . avoid the uric acid or pre urine (trioxypurine) in animal
flesh which is correlated to arthritis. Celebrex makers
do not tell us that trioxypurine crystals are needle
like and gather around the joints. http://www.pcrm.org...��
2. avoid ecoli http://www.meatout.org
3. avoid salmonella http://www.meatstinks.com
4. avoid female hormones given birds.. which are correlated
to prostate, breast, uterine and other cancers
http://www.upc-online.org
5. avoid the unnatural heart excitation caused by adrenalin
(terror and anger hormones) secreted by birds before and during
slaughter.
6. Avoid the anger from meat ingestion. Some of the adrenalin protein
enzyme chain is destroyed by cooking, but enough links remain intact
to recreate biochemical stress.
7. avoid the bad karma of causing suffering to innocents
http://www.eggcruelty.com
8. Save energy A pound of meat takes 81 times the production
energy of a pound of fruit.. found Dr D Meyer.
http://www.sierraclub.org
9. Enable efficient systems. Animal flesh yields100 to 1000 lbs an
acre, while fruit yields 250,000 to 456,000 per acre.

10. Prevent choking. Meat is the 6th major cause of accidental death.

***
ConAgra one of the biggest food conglomerates in the world
slaughters 'butterball' turkeys, bred so topheavy
they cannot stand. Butterball headquartered in Downers' Grove
Illinois. A downer is an animal so sick she cannot stand
as she arrives at the slaughterhouse.
