Left: A Six Sentence Story


The chicken knew.

 While it was scratching in the grass at the side of the street bordering the wooded area alongside the railroad tracks, the chicken knew what no one else did.

 The passer-by who discovered the body near the tracks didn't know what happened to the man. Neither did the police, who could only discern that the deceased hadn't been hit by a train.

 The man was dead, and he left no clues as to why.

 But the chicken knew.


Linking up with Ivy at Uncharted for Six Sentence Stories with the prompt "left."

      Don't we all! My husband and I seriously saw this chicken on the side of the street the other day. I posted the picture on facebook. Then the next day, the body was found just yards away from the chicken. THE CHICKEN KNOWS SOMETHING.

      As my husband said when I told him they found a dead man right by where we found the chicken, "I knew that fucking chicken was up to no good."

    Animals survive in the wild by being very observant. Clearly we should be enlisting their help in solving crimes they may have witnessed. If not willing to talk we may have to grill them.

    The chicken did it! Why'd the chicken cross the road? To get away from the body he just hid.

    I never trusted chickens. They are so fowl.
