To dance as if you're hypnotizing chickens
cavorting 'round the floor as one been stricken,
contortions triggered solely by the sound
afflicted as the room spins 'round and 'round.

Flailing arms and legs akimbo to the beat
as St. Vitus pulls the strings tied to your feet,
abandon sets the pace as you're propelled
on waves of sound that rise into the swell.

A whirling dervish set on overload...
somewhere a chicken tries to cross the road.

DM,

Man, you almost did more for me than any cup of coffee!  I am so trying to wake up gently and now you have me laughing.

Laughing is good first thing in the morning - and so is a dose of poetry from the good Dr.

Thank you and have a good one.

Alison,
Thank you, and you're welcome. Now I'say that's starting your day off on the right foot. And a one, and a two...

The last time I hypnotised a chicken I was no way so active. But, I liked your poem and I'm gonna whisk up my ass and dance around that stunned, old hen.
