Iamb beak peck tammy eater

Every friggin day

mother hen runs amuck,

while all chicken's

beady eyes appear awestruck

drawing particular

agitation, irritation, perturbation...

of Punxsutawney (Doctor) Phil

(well grounded) woodchuck,

the latter glaring at henpecked

yours truly rifled

tail feathered rooster,

whether communicating

nonverbal sympathy

towards me, a garden variety

Gallus gallus domesticus dumbstruck,

who doth make feeble attempt

albeit without explaining
rhyme or reason

poetic, plaintive, pathetic... cluck,

regarding doomed pyrrhic victory

against incessant cackling

more fowl and upset

than goosed duck,

she that casus belli hideous source

feels cooped up bred to lay eggs

absent any pleasure to fµç*

out her tail feathers fin

hushed yoked for sole purpose

mutter under beak, what the "huck"

subsequently, she takes frustration

buzzfeeding me 'bout chained to

chicken feed to earn

breeder (yours truly) favorable luck

yielding "FAKE" farmer

Matthew Scott Harris megabuck

regarding top quality accolades

raves subsequently generate

he invariably feels moonstruck

matter of fact expanded business

necessitating workers to drive

state of the art rigorous motortruck

the missus decries mistreatment

scratching thru mire and muck

to fill little beasts in belly,

eventually retired, repurposed

relieved invariably chef

buoy or gull hardy sole destiny,

whereby one or another

hired hand will gingerly pluck

every spruced, primped,

groomed... feather

in short shrift priming

precious helpless creature,

(who bemoans lack

of state bird status)

into slaughterhouse five

butchered, filleted (maybe), quartered...

routed to household kitchen

gamely served at potluck

toothpicks applied to teeth

loosening gristle unstuck

after appetites satiated

belt unbuckled years ago

purchased before Sears Roebuck

shuttered stores, plus

bought linens and things

comfortable pillow perfect to tuck

under drowsy sudden sleepy head

unaware coop d'etat mutiny hatched,

whereby sly fox weasels him/

herself to guard henhouse

finding petrified slack beaked

AC/DC powered chicken coop,

where prating poultry thunderstruck.
