Chickens in a pen

Throw a spear to the right, wait

Throw a spear to the left, wait

Throw a spear in the center,

Repeat

Clack, clack, clack,

Ha, ha, ha

Pluck one up, throw into the mincer

Then another, then another

Break the bones, pull the wings

What are you doing asked a passer by?

Defending myself against the chickens, said the man

But they are in a pen, sir. How can you defend yourself against chickens in a pen?

Oh sir, you don’t understand. These are very bad chickens. You see the ones in the back there? Last week three of them broke out and threatened me.

Those chickens threatened your existence?

Yes sir.

How so?

By intention.

But chickens are small, and you are big.

So? They still threaten my existence, in my mind.

Have you mistreated those chickens?

Not at all. I’ve been the best pen ward.

Pluck, pluck, pluck, pluck

Ha, ha, ha, ha.
