chicken is what he was
or so they said, anyway
called him yellow
for not wanting to jump
good thing too
cause the guy who dared
after him flew into the night
landed on his head
and broke his neck
think it's gutsy to be different

Excellent! What a unique take on the prompt and you're right, it takes guts to be different and stand up for your beliefs and desires!
Thanks so much for your entry
