These Crows
No traitor’s spy lay in thy hand
Ashes to ashes sand and sand
Dark compass eyes a bloody horizon
Smoking executioner ‘neath trees of treason
My lover’s honor betray
This oath burnt no long obey
Cut your tongue and swallow thine blood
No curse exists to define your love
These crows fall at murder’s command
Devouring the ghost where you couldn’t stand
Picking flesh from the pyre self erected
Beauty rots where hate is reflected
No traitor’s spy lay in thy hand
Ashes to ashes sand and sand
Dark compass eyes a bloody horizon
Smoking executioner ‘neath trees of treason
Fraternized loyalty o’serpants mingling bond
Camaraderie’s contract refuted; trust is gone
O’ brother why art thou silent now?
No shame in your cowards cowl?
These crows gather in the shape of Death’s shadow
Like storm clouds they shade hungering gallows
Littering the fields with their broken communion
Staring dispassionately, gorged on our expired union
No traitor’s spy lay in thy hand
Ashes to ashes sand and sand
Dark compass eyes a bloody horizon
Smoking executioner ‘neath trees of treason
Excellent entry…and thanks for your generous words. the picture in my mind of this poem very morbid on one hand but still I see landscape of red and black…a lonely tree with forboding death and betrayal…
