The Crows

Solitude does seek some solace Free from faithless fealty faces who fear fidelity and sooth. The fiends of night despise mice Who have big hearts in their bosom Which dead would rather devour, For live flesh disgusts these heartless crows Who will never become your doves. Death's wailing worms who decompose All but those who bleed blood and hearts, For the jackals shall see them killed, An off'ring to secret shadows.
