Cock of the walk

This barn yard!  Is mine. 

This grass! Is mine. 

Watch me scratch off. 

This air! Is mine.

That feed! Is mine. 

Got my eyes on you. 

Get out!

Silly human.

Can’t you see my strut?

My dander is up.

Chest puffed out.

Talons a little wider. 

Standing a little taller.  

I’ll chase you into a rut.

These hens! Are mine.

Silly human. 

See my comb standing straight?

Don’t ruffle my feathers.

I’m flapping my wings just for you. 

Stare you down if I have too. 

These eggs! Are mine. 

Get out!

Silly human. 

This is my barn yard!

Feel my beak strike your flesh. 

Doesn’t taste very good. 

But I don’t care. 

Told you once.

No more warnings. 

Bawk! Bawk! Bawk! Bawk!

Silly human. 

IT’S CHASE TIME.

Get out!
