Chicken of the Sea

There once was a ship, full of chickens at sea. They plundered and pillaged, quite ferociously. They sat on their perch, with their ivory white sails. They were led by a wolf, with a chicken suit for a veil. As their numbers declined, they soon began to see. He wasn't like the rest, they could see his big sharp teeth. One by one they jumped ship, then the wolf was alone. With his chickens all gone, he trolled on back home.

I love this creation- as it so amply describes certain types of vermin that infest this dark world. A definite fav..
