The Crows Come

When I sprinkle the black sunflower seeds in my garden, for my songbirds The crows come in, and land on their knees They cover the yard and caw their truth Pretending they are ravens, I can endure their ugly banter Bringing thoughts of Poe into my brain I am not ready yet, so please do not push me.
