Duck's Plea

There is a fly in the oinkment Someone ate pork chops , the duck is in a plucking bad mood, threats of assassination and shooting him Leave me alone you vile monsters, talking of making curry out of duck dead remains Scrambling the eggs and allsorts, please anyone with a heart shelter me I am an old duck Going grey in the feathers, this all gives me such bad blood at my age We live in such a hostile world, I have such a good family They have protected me for years, in the sanctuary of beautiful hills Always had peace and quiet, no interference from the out side world Until now this carry on demonic snuff videos sent to duck , just wish they could see my little heart Have always been a good duck, wouldn't hurt anyone accept flies My little eyes cry tears of fear, my life is being threatened As I wipe the tears with my wings, now they are stuck to my sides with so much fear If only I could stretch my wings In happiness towards the sky, like in my sheltered years My wings always opened for a hug, why do you want me to have such a cruel end, like the pig pork chops Beware of the wolf in sheep's clothing My dad taught me this, he always made me feel 3 foot high Hiding in the corn, probing for intelligence, a non smoking serial killer Sent pictures of dead fellow ducks on a plate, had such beautiful adventures, planning them in my mind, now distorted with threats You opened a big can of worms Threatening the life of this duck Sending snuff videos Of duck killers , help me find the killers As they ain,t seen crazy duck yet

I can relate to the feeling of being scared of this unpredictable world. Sometimes I wish I could find a place to hide away from it all. And, I could just live there forever.....Great work on this creative poem!...Check out my new poem, "Trapped". It is similar to this.....Thank you for the comments. Glad I could make you smile!
