Mar 2017
fear not the ebony bird
flying in the sky
the message of providence
on his wings ply*
an omen
he brings
voicing
of shiner things
over the centuries
a misrepresentation
had of his meaning
on the black feathers
we can be confidential leaning
above where the raven
shows a plumage dark
our eyes shall encounter
the luminous spark
he's symbolic
of fortune's path
he's signalling
*no visible wrath
flying in the sky
the message of providence
on his wings ply*
an omen
he brings
voicing
of shiner things
over the centuries
a misrepresentation
had of his meaning
on the black feathers
we can be confidential leaning
above where the raven
shows a plumage dark
our eyes shall encounter
the luminous spark
he's symbolic
of fortune's path
he's signalling
*no visible wrath
