Black birds

Tell me I am the only one
Convince me to stay
Give me reasons
to stay each of the passing seasons
allow cycles to collapse
follow the destiny
and the blood trails


remember songs from the black birds
fly away my friend
remember sightings from the black birds
in the backyard
of a midnight grave yard
remember those who hated them
those black birds
bastards to some
the choir to others
remember feathers after cats meal
remember muffled sounds from atop the roof
remember following quietly
to view all the black birds
