Yeah, saw that the boys in red had a bit of a torrid time.

In death's dream kingdom
Let me also wear
Such deliberate disguises
Rat's coat, crowskin, crossed staves
In a field
Behaving as the wind behaves
No nearer—“ TS Elliot

& the Crows all be Roosting
Can a Corvid get Covid ?
I just want my Vax Boosting...
They're the theropod dinosaurs
that thrived past the asteroid
& maybe this plague
will leave humankind void
they thot brains needed layers
to be self-conscious & smart
turns out Crowbrains are powerful
...& maybe they got more heart...
Today we sing
in honor of Black Wings
- on a Samhain Sunday
- Caws it's just our thing.
