hurr durrr i got pardoned turkey

its been a fair while since I was pardoned. Yes, I was set free, my death sentence was lifted and I was chosen out of the countless thousands of other turkeys to live a life free from the sordid smell of my own waste and the decaying flesh of my brethren, free from the weight of my inevitable death. Oh yes, sweet death. What I wouldnt give for its cold grip, silencing my thoughts forever, erases my endless pain.
But death it seems, will be out of my reach for many long thanksgivings to come.
As I said before, I waspardoned. Set apart; above the rest. But, I am no different from the rest, or at least that is what it seemed. I was born, and promptly thrown into a crate with many other turkeys just like me. We spent a few dark days with one another in total darkness, crying. God, I can still hear them, their endless chirps and squeaks, frantic inane babble. It was sickening and yet, the wretched noise confirmed my existence. Truly I was.alive.

When at last I was released from the dark crate, I was introduced to a new reality, not dark, but nauseatingly bright. This was the world, the universe, for myself and my many, many kindred. A processing plant. A squalid machine of death, whose only purpose and desire is to prepare us for the slaughter. AS we were stuffed in little cages, I could hear the screams of those who had been fullyprepared. Dropped promptly without dignity into an iron beast, renting flesh from bone, head from shoulder. This was my lifes purpose, to grow fat and be violently torn asunder. All for the traditions of even darker entities than the slaughter machine. Gluttons, demons whose designs have utterly reduced all of turkey-kind to foodstuffs. Existing only to die, dying only to feed the already bloated bodies of humans. This was my fate, one I anticipated with joy. In death I could escape this evil truth. This was my fate.until they came.

Of course, none of us had any way to know when our time had come. Its only a feeling. A weight in the heart, cold as stone. A silent knowing, the aura of fate begins to appear about the body , unseen, but felt. A feeling more vivid, more real than any I had ever known. It was my time. I heard the creaking of the heavy barn doors being opened. A group of tall, menacing shapes gathered around my pin, my holding cell. Finally, precious death has come to rescue me, I thought.. A shadowy face.a bright smile.
Voices.voices in toungues I could never begin to understand. A strange appendageanarmlifted me from the cage. Surely this was it, the end. I closed my eyes, waiting to be dropped into the ravenous slaughter machine. The whir of its bowels sounded clearer, and clearer in my ears. But then suddenly.the wretched hum of the machines, the fluorescent lighting, the gobbles and squeals of the others.was silenced. I heard the doors shut.
I opened my eyes to find that I was still in the suspiciously gentle arms of the shadow-faced stranger.

(presidemt: Hey there lil buddy! Ill bet yer happy to be getting outta there!)
AS I scanned this alien world, thisoutside, I noticed that there was a crowd of humanscollecting in a mass, a great crowd. The stranger then proceded to set me down on a pedestal. As I sat there, bathed in sunlight, I felt such warmth that I wasnt supposed to know, a joy I wasnt supposed to feelwhyme?

(AS the president of these united states, I hereby pardon this turkey from execution, and decree that he shall live a life of comfort for the rest of his days)
(applause)

I wondered if I had indeed been killed, and this was some lovely afterlife. I pecked at my wing, the pain signified that this was not so. I was alive, rescued by the very creatures that condemned me to death.


That was a fair while ago. I eat well each day, I live in the sunlight, The air is unsoiled by death, the free air.
But
why?

i punched subscribe just in case you make videos again. even if not, you need to write you little punk. you are what i might have been (if i had not been intoxicated at your age and too many years past it) and perhaps several times over. -yes i saw several of your vids and still came to this conclusion. ..sober. do not write for masses of humans. write because you are good. write what makes you laugh or feel, and care not about anyone else.

[bartlebybartleby]
