Not another depressed Monday blip
I saw the picture.
The words were still fresh in my mind.
Raven
By Robert E Smith (AKA Blob)
Black fingers stroke the sky
With wind splayed caress
Diamond tail rudders effortless course
You scan this land
Your flickered orb
Ruffled ink black
Snug oilskin coat
Proclaim your world
Rough noose necked croaks
You cry tomorrow
Procrastinate or mediate
Between us and gods
Morrigan battlefield banquet
Chiselled key to dead treasure
Sharp horn beak
Chill carrion feast
Relentless pecks
As knot gnawed claws
Scar land and flesh
Honed corvid sharps
You look past with eye bright
Morbidly play, please
Weave your bridge
That I may reunite
With those I love
Across silken cloud
And milky way.
