A Murder Of Crows, for eons a chanted tale
yet its significance has not festered stale;
despite many manipulations it has faced
ineffaceable remains truth even if untraced;

abound were the fluttering clouds overhead
enshrouding the land and beings devolved;
a gale so fierce: a flight of messengers dear
the omens heralding the cascade of tears;

for our mother nature was wounded raved
having been plundered by souls depraved;

for they'd forsaken their spirits and hearts
engulfed by greed they tore the wild apart;
looted all the treasures, the silvers and gold
hoarded a high pile of their collects behold;

spilt the blood of many who dare opposed
slight discord and their lives were disposed;
friends became fiends ferociously vicious
callous, malicious with their reign atrocious;

though anguished symbols they overlooked
amidst abandon they iced in fear: spooked;

unwilling to see their monstrosity, in disdain
omens heralding nature's pain were slain;
omens of death in folk lores they became
yet the death of none but their own came;

as is a traditional custom of those who rose
beyond ignorance 'n prejudices supposed;
as is a fate of those rare beings quite wise
in the hands of fools' mouldering edifice;

so beware Nature! Beware, oh glorious wild
iniquitous have become your human child.
