Oh chicken, chicken in my yard...

Just for fun,
Oh Chicken, Chicken in My Yard:


Oh chicken, chicken in my yard
promise me you will discard
fruits of labor in a nest
while I wipe my brow and rest
from this fancy coop designed
with only your happiness in mind.
Fruits of labor, tell me when
eggs benedict can begin.
Distractions, beaks on downy ball -
whirl of motion three inches tall,
eating machine, let no man assume
they not be snack had you but room.
Oh chicken, chicken on my land
once clueless, now I understand
what you drop beyond the egg
is the best of what politicians crave.

Simplicity: practical notion, bit of seed in hand
blurred color in motion.

Oh chicken, chicken, in my yard…
