Church of the Stunned Chicken by John Cranford
Minute Poetry writing prompt entry


I'm looking up, is this a knack?
It's looking back.
Is this a chick,
Or just a trick?

This church has windows that can see.
They stare at me,
With look of stun.
Is this a pun?

The builder through their hands he slipped.
Good chance he skipped.
With smiling face,
He left no trace.
