Cannibal's Chicken Noodle Soup

"Do Chicken Hawks eat chickens?"

"Yes, Tommy that's why they're called Chicken Hawks. . . "

"Are they birds?"

"Yes, Tommy. Hawks. . . are birds."

"And they eat chickens . . ?" He wrinkled his nose in disgust . . . "That's like . . cannibalism. . ."

I stopped typing, leaned back in my chair, and turned to look at him, suppressing a small sigh.

"Tommy, chickens just . . . They flap and they squawk. They don't even fly. . . "

He gave me a look, a look that only a 12 year old boy could pull off without laughing outright.

"I always thought it was Cannibal's Chicken Noodle Soup. . . "

Whaaaat?
