I want to sing to the crows
that they might stop their
raucous shouting to
cock their heads and listen.
Up in the branches,
where the wind twists her hair,
my voice carries soft and
is lost in their black-feathered throats.
Were they silent,
perhaps God would hear
the heavy note hanging
in my soul-twisting calls.

Ooh, I like the self-titled-ness. Very well written. A little chilling, too, but very good. :la:
