Birds on a wire, the murderous crows commonly known as an omen of doom silently staring and perching in rows What might they be pondering, I cannot suppose, their black, piercing eyes bore into my room Birds on a wire, the murderous crows Outside my window the flock slowly grows unsettled, I watch them gather and loom silently, staring and perching in rows. The flapping of wings sings songs of sorrows here with a message for me, I assume. Birds on a wire, the murderous crows My fear has ebbed of these wondrous fellows; you see, we're not unalike I presume-- silently staring and perching in rows. Pencil tapping, I stare out the window perched on my chair as I sit in the gloom Birds on a wire, the murderous crows, silently staring and perching in rows.

The Murderous Crows
Birds on a wire, the murderous crows commonly known as an omen of doom silently staring and perching in rows What might they be pondering, I cannot suppose, their black, piercing eyes bore into my room Birds on a wire, the murderous crows Outside my window the flock slowly grows unsettled, I watch them gather and loom silently, staring and perching in rows. The flapping of wings sings songs of sorrows here with a message for me, I assume. Birds on a wire, the murderous crows My fear has ebbed of these wondrous fellows; you see, we're not unalike I presume-- silently staring and perching in rows. Pencil tapping, I stare out the window perched on my chair as I sit in the gloom Birds on a wire, the murderous crows, silently staring and perching in rows.
A Villanelle.
