Bok Bok Berserk

.

The chicken was unstable

A consequence of War

He'd lost too many Feathered Friends

To count them anymore

.

He was now a blooded monster

Vicious in the fight

Raining down most bloody death

Even without flight

.

The thing that kept him living

From one day to the next

Was the revenge he was planning

"Let's chop some fucking necks"

.

For forty days and forty nights

He laid his cunning plans

"Gonna get some justice"

"Gonna kill the man"

.

A life hard lived had taken toll

Our chicken was not vernal

Still he would complete his goal

To kill that evil Colonel

.

Scoping out the evil lair

Of brown bricks and tiles red

The chicken knew to bide his time

He mustn't lose his head

.

He confronts the Colonel's lackeys

With a cockeyed glare of rage

"Please don't hurt us mister"

"We've only minimum wage"

.

Away they fled in dreadful fright

Like so many headless chooks

Now the chicken turned his sights

To the leader of the crooks

.

He found him in the kitchen

Surrounded by devices

To grind and chop and mix together

Eleven herbs and spices

.

"I wondered when you'd get here"

Said in Southern drawl

"You killed my brothers" the chicken screamed

And thus began the brawl

.

He wasn't here to crow today

This cock was here for fightin

Unsheathing shining blades of death

His talons slashed like lightnin

.

A jacket once white now was red

The Colonel lay down beaten

"I tell you it was worth it"

"Your brothers were good eatin' "

.

The chicken released a long held breath

"Now they're safe from you"

Standing tall with pride puffed chest

He crows "Cock-a-doodle-doo!"

.

I wrote this just for fun, but wanted to share it anyway
