Phillip Garcia Poet Free verse

Chicken Bake

One more hen 
whose head was lost 
has been saved
from a cocky mess
she’d still love to lay.

A feeble act
of morning resistance
to three parts 
perfectly played
by only a pail 
of indigo
paint.  Still sealed.  
Water-based.

It was not 
written 
to be enough -

all of which I have had.
