Poems with
Ravens & Crows

​
Odin’s snitches and drones baby
desert tortoise gobblers shell crackers
squatters on dumpsters squabble over
fast food bags in the middle of the street
refuse to move for oncoming cars
until the last possible moment then
hop right back you cannot kill them
or try they remember your face and
will give you no peace after that
