The Chicken Fox
The Chicken Fox is a great moment of confusion
within the barrels and parallels of time and air.
The Chicken Fox lives upon tree tops
and in wooded places, far away from walls and rooms.
The Chicken Fox feels constantly on edge
as it does not know what its nature is.
The Chicken Fox bites, snarls and howls
in a constant creeping scarlet anger.
The Chicken Fox finds solace only within fields
made from red clover and purslane.
Here she rests in a sunlight embrace
soothed by the words of the wind.
The Chicken Fox is both feather and fur
whiskers and beak. She craves the flesh of others
of whom she is unable to hunt and eat.
She constantly falls over.
This is the first collaborative piece from Michael and Gonzalo as part of their series ‘The Windy Voices of Love’- A collection of hybrid creatures from imagination and myth written by Michael and beautifully illustrated by Gonzalo.
