Why did the chicken cross the road?

Why did the chicken cross the road,
Where headlights gleamed and traffic flowed?
For death was surely waiting there,
And with death, a bird's despair.

No feasible answer can be provided,
But when she and the car collided,
The chicken clucked out as it died,
"I'm going to the other side!"


Everyone is at homecoming, and I am alone. :(
