Wink From a Crow

A triple warning

To avoid whatever

The shadow drags in



Creeping into gaps

Noiseless

Slashing all in its path



A widow still

After all these years,

Perched on a window sill



The friend I seek

Is the one indeed,

In a casket of deeds



Shall I live again

For the one to gain

In an instant dream?



If I live again

For the one to gain,

What will remain?



Burnt by will

Evacuated within,

A wink from a crow

I get the feeling someone is watching me...
