New Interest In Running a Poultry

A new interest in running a poultry,
Then, reckoned the needed sum not paltry,
Coolants for birds with the weather sultry,
The chilly worse, keeper desultory…

When birds start dying owner jittery:
Mass breathing of one’s last in battery;
Of its allure packed-with-eggs crates trappings
But should nose deal with foul smell, eyes droppings?

And then this Bastards’ cannibalism
Worse than Nigerian’s Tribalism - 
You’ll be paying someone for debeaking
To make safer any fresh bickering;
Also experts on Coccidiosis
To cry less to God in His diocese…

I know it has been a don’t-risk-it voice
But the brave-hearted keeps his brave choice: 
To remain their town’s chief egg suppliers 
While routes to chicken stalls retain flyers.
