An Evening Stroll

I was walking my dog the other day when we ran into the chicken

“Good morning chicken!”, I said
“Good morning …”, the chicken mumbled
“I have to leave. If they ask, you didn’t see me.”
I looked at the chicken
“I don’t want to go. But I have to go. I must go.”

“I know chicken. I understand.”, I said, “I never saw you”
“Goodbye chicken …”
