Naming Crows
Call it cold rock crow when it just sits there
amidst untouchable brambles and mocks-
Call it blind crow when it pecks out its own eyes
becoming numb to injustice and violence-
Call it plug crow when it covers the ears to a plea
Call it humble crow when for God it takes a knee-
Call it Jim crow when it perches high in a nevergreen nest
separating itself and coyly looking down on the rest-
