The Crow
I sit in silence
staring out the window
hoping for guidance
my head remains in limbo
the clouds hang low
dark as ash
the fog creeps in so slow
in the sky there is a flash
I hear a crow far away,
with a grating cry
that chills my bones without delay.
The sight makes me shiver as I wonder why.
Why do you circle my house that way?
The fog creeps closer, closer, closer
My thoughts race.
Will I be caught by it? No sir.
I run quickly, quickly, quickly away from the place
The clouds darken the sky
the fog hurries towards me
I’m surrounded so I start to say goodbye.
My mind is full, thoughts swarming within me.
The lightning strikes, the thunder claps
The crow cries
This is it, perhaps
The little songbird appears, bringing the clear skies.
I relish the sun,
the blue skies,
the warmth.
I hope the songbird is here to stay.

Birds are always fun to draw, and crows are especially silly birds

There was a really big cowboy-looking dude in the coffee shop, and after a while I realized he seemed to be staring at me, and I was getting uncomfortable until he suddenly startled and came over to say "I'm so sorry, ma'am, I wasn't trying to stare at you. There is a HUGE bird behind you." And lo and behold, right outside the window, there was an absolute unit of a crow.

I want an army of crows. Like... As friends. Definitely not planning to become a menace of any kind.

This was the kiss he’d been waiting for. It was a gunshot. It was prairie fire. It was the spin of Makker’s Wheel. Jesper felt the pounding of his heart—or was it Wylan’s?—like a stampede in his chest, and the only thought in his head was a happy, startled, Oh.

no because, I want to befriend crows
they're like super curious about humans and they can remember your face for years and even bring you gifts if they appreciate you, sometimes shiny stuff or even gifts that would be considered courting gifts
it's funny also because if you offend a crow their whole family and friends now know about you because they're fucking petty
they're also very loyal animals and I just think they're adorable
