Tommy

Tommy the turkey was tired
totally tired, it's true
as his tribe  - being tremendously tasty -
tended to top the menu
 
Tom started out pretty tranquil
He was quite the traditional type
But rightfully got in a temper
at some of that thanksgiving hype
 
He seemed to get touchy and testy
as his farm friends dwindled a lot
And if my mates were turned into twizzlers
I too would be losing the plot
 
So Tom took to taking some action
in the local town for his team
And his tit-for-tat retribution
is a tip-top turkey-based dream
 
Well, I tremble and totter and teeter
What if cows were to follow his trend?
Or the pigs, or the sheep, or the chickens?
I question just where will it end?
 
But Tommy is ever tenacious
I've asked him to quit - but no use
So perhaps we should just have the stuffing?
Perhaps it is time for a truce?
