Be Right Back, Uninstalling

from the collected works of billy the kid:

After shooting Gregory
this is what happened

I'd shot him well and careful
made it explode under his heart
so it wouldnt last long and
was about to walk away
when this chicken paddles out to him
and as he was falling hops on his neck
digs the beak into his throat
straightens legs and heaves
a red and blue vein out

Meanwhile he fell
and the chicken walked away

still tugging at the vein
till it was 12 yards long
as if it held that body like a kite
Gregory's last words being

get away from me yer stupid chicken

Why Matter, why do you keep on doing this?

???

And here I was thinking it would be a poetry thread. I actually like some poems, Robert Frost owns.

This was a very interesting book. I have not read it again since the first time.
