Crow’s Feet By JL Huffman

life etched

            crows kettle
            a scavenger squadron
            carrion hunt

sorrow and joy

            roadkill raccoon
            restive crows circle
            ravenous

indelible

            murder of crows
            talons tear tissue
            dismember Death
