A RAVENS UNFORTUNATE CURSE
[[{"type":"media","view_mode":"media_large","fid":"51093","attributes":{"alt":"","class":"media-image","height":"200","typeof":"foaf:Image","width":"200"}}]]
The raven,
destined by his curse,
to live a solitary life.
Bygones are forgotten.
Lovers found the false truth
and flew away.
His curse is his own,
thrush upon him
by ignorance and fear,
never to be trusted,
loved,
looked after.
He wishes no harm,
no evil or malice,
but only to be near to another,
any other,
even not of his own kind.
Dear Raven,
I do not hold on to
these tales of woe,
stories of horror
and fearfulness.
You are beautiful,
majestic,
magnificent
and wild
but alas,
alone.
destined by his curse,
to live a solitary life.
Bygones are forgotten.
Lovers found the false truth
and flew away.
His curse is his own,

by ignorance and fear,
never to be trusted,

looked after.
He wishes no harm,
no evil or malice,
but only to be near to another,

even not of his own kind.
Dear Raven,
I do not hold on to
these tales of woe,
stories of horror
and fearfulness.
You are beautiful,
majestic,
magnificent
and wild
but alas,
alone.
