Corvid – 2020 Weekly Challenge #12
“In many traditions, crows are messengers and close attention is paid to their actions.” Robert Moss
Final Caw Alienated in this swampland feel of grey desolation days with splintered signposts, where the undertaker rests atop with beady eyes as the emptiness of the hearse of life rolls on by, waiting for your final caw signalling the final door. ©Paul Vincent Cannon

I like this poem very much, Paul. Firstly because it has a raven in it and secondly because “the hearse of life”. It fits my mood.
