Triolet for a Murder
by Kira Rosemarie
See me counting all the murder.
Minerva, can you hear them sing?
Corvid cries, a dense, strong warder
See me counting all the murder?
In the trees, a dense, safe harbor
By me perched thousands of black wings
Signs for those of goddess, daughter
Minerva, can you hear them sing?
Minerva, can you hear them sing?
Corvid cries, a dense, strong warder
See me counting all the murder?
In the trees, a dense, safe harbor
By me perched thousands of black wings
Signs for those of goddess, daughter
Minerva, can you hear them sing?
