Raven Skies

Fly by night
morning raven
vixen to the devil's thoughts.
Fly high
let loose.

Illicit deadly fear
from those around,
dreadful of your
mass delusions,
head lost
amongst confusions.

Steely laugh echoes from all corners
luring you to fight the power.
Contemplation.

Just a body or a soul
will i find courage to ever know.
Everything must take its tole.
life is full of highs and lows.
Meditation.

Raven glory
why can't you sing,
society has choked you with
expectations.
Clipped your wings,
displayed you.
Glass cage with artificial 
tree limbs,
perch for the crowd annd display
your achievements.

Soul full of contempt
breaks the glass,
tears through the
feathers,
can't fly no more.
No chance to escape
no wish to live,
dying.

Deliberate
Fascinate
Seize me
Hold me
Drown me
Quench
Wench 
you killed me.
