can you kill this chicken for me

I can eat
a lot of chicken.
fried, baked, barbequed,
sautéed or
even boiled in a stew,
but I could never actually
kill a chicken.
wring it's neck,
or chop off it's
unusually small
and pointed clucking head.
same goes for the cow,
or a rabbit.
I even feel bad about
dropping a lobster
into a pot of boiling
water,
but not as bad as I would
when killing a chicken.
