on giant chickens
L Vargas

my personal evolution
is that of tussled hair
and black rim glasses
and it all started
with a movie
I watched in middle school PE
because we couldn't play kickball
when it was raining
so we gathered
in a dank locker room
and watched a film about drugs
and their dangers
I saw terrified actors
running from giant chickens
and was not afraid
but intrigued
I wanted to see giant chickens
