Raven Or Crow

Do not be mistaken by the black feathers upon my chest
I am the mediator between life and death
Do not be fooled I am no omen
I have come as your ally not as your opponent
Do not begin this game of chess
until your adversary begins to manifest
For he is not the king upon the throne
but a dispensable pawn; a veteran on his own.
Just keep focusing on protecting your home,
leaving him wondering if you are a raven or a crow.
