The Raven's Flight

The Raven's Flight

A Poem by AraWolf
"

The normal: Graveyards, Ravens, Death, Rebirth, Horror... you get it.

"
THE RAVEN'S FLIGHT
the dark black wings
the piercing red eyes
shimmering in the blood moon

A perfect night
for the deceased
to rise from their graves

in the moonlight cemetery
the raven takes flight
the wind humming through it's feathers

it dodges
the hands crawling out
grasping at the freedom of it's flight

taking one fell swoop
the raven dives
clawing at the emerging bodies

if there was blood left to spill
the figures would be painted red
but they have been gone so long there is none

the town below
with crooked huts and sheds
seeps no life

but bathed in moonlight
gives off and eerie presence
as if the town itself is alive

perched on a branch
far above it all
the raven's watchful eyes gleam
