A Crowd of Crows

He Lay stiff
His black shoes size twelve or more
His Knotted perfect tie
Drew my eye

I Knew his eyes were closed
I dare see his face
Long crooked knuckles crossed his chest
As he lay in his dusty best

Behind a small crowd
All strangers to me
My neck tingled than froze
Stain glass windows lined with crows

Has time begun are come to none
No words 
No tears
A room full of smears

I walked straight out
My knees red and creased
Headlines in bold
Read Evil Man Now Deceased
