Explain please?  This appears to be some type of joke with drug 
paraphernalia and a modern CD.  Plus, although the title says "Peacock", 
the commentary says "turkey". ("The ripples of shadow on the 
monochromatic tablecloth, the glistening skin on the cooked turkey, the 
silky transparency of the bong.")

Or, haven't I had enough coffee??
