I struggled onto the Metro line 2 and looked around for somewhere to sit. Unusually there was a free seat next to a man who had clearly been to the market. I sat down. It didn’t occur to me that there was a good reason the seat was free. It was not long after I had sat down that there was a rustling come from the bag at his feet.
I hadn’t noticed the bag at the time but now the rustling drew my attention. It was then that I noticed two bright yellow feet sticking out of the bag. I realised that there must be an upside down body attached to it.
Rustle rustle rustle, on it went as the poor animal suffocated to death lying on its beak with its feet pointing skyward. I wonder how long it takes to suffocate a chicken in a black plastic bag?
Now I could see why the seat next to the rustling bag was free!
