Oh, why should a hen.
have been run over.
on West 4th Street.
in the middle of summer?
She was a white hen.
--red-and-white now, of course.
How did she get there?
Where was she going?
Her wing feathers spread.
flat, flat in the tar,
all dirtied, and thin.
as tissue paper.
A pigeon, yes,
or an English sparrow,
might meet such a fate,
but not that poor fowl.
Just now I went back.
to look again.
I hadn't dreamed it:
there is a hen.
