The Seven Ages of the Christmas Turkey
"The Seven Ages of the Christmas Turkey" is a humorous parody poem that reimagines Shakespeare's "All the world's a stage" speech with a festive culinary twist. A Christmas turkey moves through seven comic stages — from glorious roast centrepiece to warmed-over leftovers, cold cuts, fricassee, croquettes, hash, and finally a skeleton simmered into soup. The poem captures the darkly funny fate of the holiday bird with wit, wordplay, and a flair for the absurd.
