Wild Turkeys

In this short, powerful, poetic monologue, Miranda, age 16, tells of being both fascinated and horrified by the grotesque wild turkeys that have been coming down from the woods on foggy mornings. She has a terrible premonition that they are messengers of death who've come to take the child that is growing inside her. But this terrifying vision is what helps her decide if she wants to keep her child. In Banana Man & Other Plays.
