The Big Cock
The biggest cock I have ever saw
Was coloured a sort of red, feathers
all around its base and little spots
on skinny head
It stood erect for all to see that hens
Might come to play, and soon these
Feathered concubines, in pleasure
Squawked to sway
And big cock resting eyes half-closed
The day’s now peaceful find, with catty
Girls now pecking round and next time
On their mind
So if you see a cock quite large with
Trembling jerking head, take him quiet,
With hens and all, to comfy warming shed.
