Wild Turkeys in the Street

For John and Paul’s 47-word Short Story Unofficial Challenge

By Gabriel ShamesPublished about 5 hours ago 1 min read
It’s called a “gang”

A gang of turkeys wandered onto a business park road.

A car came upon them apprehensively and stopped. The horn blared. No movement.

A man emerged, brandishing a broom. Hitting one, it reared up and ran beak-first toward him.

He ran back to the car to wait.
