Pruned: City upon a Chicken

(A “multiscape” by Pim Palsgraaf, 2005.)

If a city upon a hill is but a utopian dream, i.e., unattainable, how about a city upon a chicken? A mobile, disaster-averting city with easy access to cheap, local and free range produce, watched by the rest of the world as a model for a sustainable community.

Why did the city cross the road?

It was on the back of the chicken.

Baba Yaga (Russian witch) lives in a cabin than walks on chicken legs. I wonder who lives in the City upon a Chicken?
