Made in darkness
I bleed obsidian prose
over stark realities
begging the world to see me
for more than sharpness and wit
smooth feathers cover the marred flesh
of battle scars
caws harken me forth
for meal, for bonding, for home
but I have flown
too close to the sun
but also
only by light of the moon
I feast on last breaths
making sure no life goes in vain
but my devotion
is not to pain or sacrifice,
just choice,
I fly because I can
my wings giving voice to the wind
warning you of omens
you’ll never understand
but I have no choice but see
my life is obsidian prose
darkness bleeds from me
