Nature's Retribution

As gloamings gathered,
On dark velvety pads,
I saw a murder,
And the culprits were crows.
They gathered in the branches,
Of a dead oak tree,
Bristling with intent,
Poor man, it was his time to repent.
They gouged out his eyes,
To access his brain,
They pecked through the portals,
And consumed his consciousness.
The crows picked over the bones,
Then paused to look at me,
And flew up to their roost,
In a dead oak tree.
A lone magpie caught my eye,
And beckoned to the sky,
Nature's retribution,
The day of reckoning is nigh.
As gloamings gathered,
On dark velvety pads,
I saw a murder,
And the culprits were crows.
