Rooster Becomes Life Coach, Yells “Wake Up!” at City Seminars and Charges $999 Per Cluck

Ma said, “He coachin’ now? With that mouth?”
Pa muttered, “He clucks folks straight out the South.”
Rooster strutted in with spiked red crest,
Yelled “WAKE UP!” and puffed his chest.
“Don’t hit snooze on life, hit the barn,”
He crowed from stages built in yarn.
City crowds paid to hear him scream,
“Be your best, chase that feed dream!”
Chicken sold merch–shirts that yell,
Pig led breakout groups in a hog motel.
“Clarity begins with a 5 a.m. squawk,”
Goat agreed, took notes in chalk.
Lou filmed testimonials from sobbing suits,
Changed by crow calls and cowboy boots.
Now Rooster’s booked through fiscal year,
Preaching grit from coop to pier.
