chicken jockey; A most peculiar and fascinating spectacle an unorthodox pairing that defies expectation and yet seems to persist with the quiet confidence of something entirely natural. This is the Chicken Jockey: a baby zombie (or skeleton), no taller than a man’s walking cane, astride the back of a simple barnyard chicken. At first glance, one might be forgiven for dismissing it as a glitch a brief lapse in the world’s logic. But no this union is intentional, and it is magnificent. The rider, though grotesque in its undead form, clings to its mount with the intensity of a cavalryman on a moonlit charge, while the chicken trots along with placid resolve, entirely unaware or perhaps wholly unconcerned with the nature of the creature upon its back. There is something oddly regal about the way they move—a harmony of menace and innocence. The chicken, often regarded as one of the most unassuming of creatures, becomes the unlikely chariot of doom, ferrying its grim passenger across plains, through forests, and over hills with an almost comical sense of duty.
