感恩节火鸡特赦
闭上眼睛
正要做最後的祷告
却听到一声大叫
“特赦！”
它赶紧把伸得长长的脖子
缩了回来
睁开眼睛一看
闪个不停的镁光灯下
自己竟成了
万众瞩目的明星
附注：每年在感恩节之前，白宫有一个例行的仪典，是由总统赦免一只火鸡(还有一只它的候补)，免受宰杀烧烤端上感恩餐桌的命运。
PRESIDENTIAL PARDON TURKEY
With her eyes
closed
she was about to
utter her last prayer
when suddenly a
voice yelled
Pardon!
Immediately she
withdrew her long stretched neck
and opened her
eyes
finding herself an
instant star
in front of
flashing cameras
