Perhaps Allowing Us To Explore

The raven knows
Life intimated
State or make--a raven would feed
On the corpses of the dead
Hanging on the gallows

Consuming criminals--what crime songbirds mimic and
Dance incorporated to earlier times;
Some songs never leave you
Close black bird piercing, unannounced--state or make
Alerting life intimated; a call

Accumulated and various realms
Sealed off--piercing
A direct call--considering how
Some songs never leave you
Decidedly pushing, on the corpses of the dead--a dance

Appreciative of its push, prod, lead you into
Considering life intimated and the shape
Of various sounds filling space
Telling you perhaps
Some songs never leave you
