Notes About The Poem

The Scavenger Bird... by Canislupuscorax on DeviantArt

- Intensive Colon Cleanse -

Crows are scavengers

                     ... they eat dog poop in my garden every day

                     When I bring my shovel and bag they scream :
  
                                ... "we want more .... more" ...

                                          ... they love it

                                               A crow

                               will fight over a dead man's flesh

                                But, stay away from my garden

Crows - ugly birds , but nevertheless necessary for the cycle of life - tell them to shoo, shoo! Hugs, Jennifer.
