No crows

 Outer Limits


Through no fault of my own doing 

Yet then from all the fault of my doing

The crows have deemed me outer limits

No matter the signals of peace sent


Crows know faces and it’s my thought

one was watching the day the rooster died

and he flew to tell the murder of the deed

A fate awaiting them should they near 


I feign to imagine what other deeds they’ve seen

Telling the crow world of one so craven

Perhaps I shall wear a mask when in the yard

Attract them again in some future new generation 


But they pass on the story to the offspring 

The cock crows thrice and I am cowering.
