I saw a little scarecrow
Outstanding in his field
He couldn't see outside it
So all was not revealed
I saw a little corvid
To window flew from wall
It pecked it's own reflection
And then became fuck all
REJ:- Hmmm....perhaps not so clever after all. I think I'll do the Will Self delusion instead.

I heard a regal raven
ReplyDeleteKnock knocking at the door
But as I went to greet him
He just said, "Nevermore"
Perhaps it was a shadow
A mimic rat tat tat
A trick to catch an echo
Turned clever copy cat
Reflecting is indiff'rence
And truth a one-way glass
That magnifies inference
Before its feel can pass
I was the shadow of the waxwing slain
ReplyDeleteBy the false azure in the windowpane;
I was the smudge of ashen fluff - and I
Lived on, flew on, in the reflected sky. x
