May 2005

Eddie and I are standing
in the crab grass behind
his single wide trailer
smoking a little dope

after a moment’s consideration
I realize what’s wrong
with the game rooster perched
on the overturned lawn chair

Eddie, why’s that chicken’s
legs tied to its wings?

to build muscle
that there’s a fighting cock

no shit – you got it
training like a poultry balboa

yeah it’s good to have‘em strong
but when I get‘em to the fights
I’ll shoot‘em up with strychnine
fucks up its nervous system
makes‘em hard as fuck to kill

no shit – next time you fight
you gotta take me with you

know how you get‘em
riled up, ready to fight?

slap its beak and insult its mama?

no, them cocks don’t understand
a word of English
you gotta grab hold and
stick a finger up its ass

and that pisses them off?

you like getting jagged in the ass?

no, especially in public

well, there you go

the yellow-legged rooster
rears back with all its might
and struts toward the swing set

I hit the joint and think
about the anally ravaged cock
squaring off against a
similarly violated opponent
both doped out of their heads
engaged in a dance to the death

I can barely wait to see it
with my own eyes
