The call

I hear the bird's cryptic crow
Indeed death it should bestow
And smother the madness of my breath

I hear the bird's carking crow
And see light kindled in foe or other
Put out by our fateful brother

I hear the bird's caring crow
At the end of a gunshot
That would drown my woe

I hear the bird's crow
And so do all in time
But we don't listen
To it's doomed rhyme
