crow

I am crow
perched high
observant
obscure

I am crow
loudly proclaiming
righteously incensed
a warning

I am crow
one-eyed, head-cocked
mystery, confronting
pompous pretense

I am crow
foolishly singular
ignorantly insulting
I eat myself.

Eagle and Crow

Eagle arrives
and I am at once
small, insignificant

Breath held
I am stillness
basking in majesty

Till ubiquitous crow
calls his cronies,
chases eagle off

Everything gains perspective.
