Oprah among the Chickens
As I watched Oprah, Harry and Meghen
standing among the chickens
standing at the epicenter of an event
that sent shock waves
throughout the free world
I asked myself this question:
Is a rescue chicken
a chicken that has been rescued by people
or is it a chicken that rescues people?
I then asked myself another question:
How many Royals does it take to change a light bulb?
and a voice answered:
It’s a journey.
They must first acknowledge
that the light bulb
was the source of the light
that previously flooded the room
then and only then
is change possible.
Brilliant, Jim!

The royal family basically exist as a PR machine for the royal family. And to deflect attention from bad news at home. Even in the manner of their leaving Harry and Meghan are performing this role admirably.

She’s a rescue chicken
no rest for her
half her feathers missing
she’s one tough bird
—– have you heard the song “Cows with Guns”? I think my chicken is in the video at the end…

I am so glad I didnt miss this poem. Somehow I reached it late. First – the title is fantastic. I especially love that the royals must first recognize that the lightbulb was the source of light. The second time around. Sigh. Well done.
