The Crows

75 3 2
                                    

On a truly vacant night, the crows gather 

Upon their feast, 

Every scrap of meat is swallowed, by the 

Savage wing'ed beasts. 

So goes the chain of life, where death 

Can restore anew, 

But a day may come where you must choose, 

If this death for life is you. 

To appease this great tormentor, a sacrifice 

Must be made, 

Bring about the blooming flower, and 

Henceforth take a spade. 

Let us sow the soil that that had once grown 

So tall, 

If the head of life's flower might wilt, we 

Stand ready to catch its fall. 

The scavengers take to flight, just the 

Bones are left to age, 

But until they find the looming banquet, 

They soar above in their rage. 

If the law was mine, I would strip 

Them of their wings, 

Without the heavens to call their home, 

What misfortune may their future bring.
