Chicken Or the Egg
bird, conflict, creation, imagery, irony, nature, word play,
“A QUESTION FOR MOTHER NATURE!”
Was it Mother Nature to create---?
An egg before the chicken….
Or chicken before its’ egg?
Either way-laid they need one important ingredient---
Claimed to give justice to one chicken egg….
And this all leads to a muddled egg toast scramble!
A chicken and a rooster begets one egg---
And if it were nature’s way and the chicken had a first go ….
From where was that rooster to coq-a-doodle-do his do?
Might it be one egg was created firstly---?
And if so; was it to be an ‘it’, him or a she….
Who gave first crack to its’ shell form?
Either way it adds up to a today’s laid dozen---
One on its’ own; could not and would not do….
Become everyone’s Sunday roast chicken dinner!
