The Crows and the Seed

Look at the crows flying high in the sky
they must know more than me

Oh Crow
How narcotic all your feathers
Volcanically brilliant in the sun

How smoothly you fly
How gently you land
How subtly you peck every sprout from my hand

But You soar higher than me, what I know or see.
You are above these seeds of dreams
You already fly

Lord
Teach me how to fight in the heights
Don't let me let them take my life.
