Hen House Hijinks

Foxes ruffle feathers
 
Blame bunny for raid on hen house.

Bunny claims “Easter” privilege.

Rainbow coalition boycotts eggs.

Media scrambles to cover story.

Free range chickens running amok.

Roosters union demands investigation.

Search party to assemble at daybreak.

Unfortunately, I think, too many stories "Media scrambles to cover" aren't much of a story at all. Give me hard news and leave the commentary to me. I can decide what I think about it. Too many "free range chickens running amok." I liked your poem immensely, John.
