Caw Cophony

The death eaters flew
onyx agate eyes,
prince’s of darkness
pall bearers of morn,
they flew…..

Between rivers of tar
onto islands of emerald
in mated pairs
they flew….

Beak and talon gore
blind sided by entropy
pinioned pirates
black holes of caw cophony.

Serpent tongues splay
shredding the cosmos
they flew………
