     CHICKEN LITTLE     So I lift your dress    and kneel before your bruises--    each a corsage; plural,     formal as a marriage--    thinking, this is how the story    stiffed you. Acorn, my arse.     It's my job to listen to the whole she-bang:    the who did which to whom    with what, and how the sky itself     was gunning for you. Most of all    I want to hear how everything    seemed lost--how hard it hurt,     how long, and where, precisely.    Incidentally, you're more than    averagely beautiful. I do believe you.     You must name it, sweetie. It is    only pain. Which isn't a punch-line    in the therapeutic sense, but then     we're archetypes, not Notting Hill    neurotics. And besides, I mean to crack    your pretty neck. I do the fox. It's nature.

Chicken Little.


Atkinson, Tiffany


CHICKEN LITTLE

   So I lift your dress
   and kneel before your bruises--
   each a corsage; plural,

   formal as a marriage--
   thinking, this is how the story
   stiffed you. Acorn, my arse.

   It's my job to listen to the whole she-bang:
   the who did which to whom
   with what, and how the sky itself

   was gunning for you. Most of all
   I want to hear how everything
   seemed lost--how hard it hurt,

   how long, and where, precisely.
   Incidentally, you're more than
   averagely beautiful. I do believe you.

   You must name it, sweetie. It is
   only pain. Which isn't a punch-line
   in the therapeutic sense, but then

   we're archetypes, not Notting Hill
   neurotics. And besides, I mean to crack
   your pretty neck. I do the fox. It's nature.
