Great poem, but for some reason I don't feel as though it's concluded.
You ended it a bit abruptly, but perhaps that was your goal.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed this.
I love the symbol of the raven, it reminds me of Poe and although you used it in this poem you made it entirely your own.
I find that quite admirable, keep up the good work.
I have to agree and disagree on some of the previous posts. I agree that this seems unfinished some how, like there is more to say.
I disagree on the comparison of Poe's raven to yours. Poe's Raven was used as a metaphor for questions we already know the answer too. In your raven, we are seeking an answer.

I always love how your poetry deals with issues, but the way you portray them (as in through the eyes of a raven) it's almost like we needn't worry about what's happening, because in the end, we will be fine.
At least that's what I feel when I read this.
