It knocked every plate off the table and partly demolished a chair.
It ricocheted into a corner and burst with a deafening boom,
Then splattered all over the kitchen completely obscuring the room.
It stuck to the walls and the windows; it totally coated the floor,
There was turkey attached to the ceiling where there had never been turkey before.
It blanketed every appliance; it smeared every saucer and bowl;
There wasn't a way I could stop it; that turkey was out of control.
I scraped and I scraped with displeasure and thought with chagrin as I mopped,
That I would never again stuff a turkey with popcorn that hadn't been popped!
