Chicken Feed

I drove to pick up chicken feed.
A friend of a friend had dropped it off
Nearby, and Phil was too sick to go.

I spent the drive in prayer, there and back,
So it wasn’t “wasted” time.

But still found myself momentarily furious,
As I lugged the fifty pound bags 
From shed to vehicle,
That I was spending my life,
Both time and money,
On feed for chickens,

While the eggs rot on my counter.
