Default Three Crows

Three Crows

There are three crows upon the fence
perched wing to wing. I’m pauper’s pence
with no one being near to me
just those three crows upon the fence.

I once had friends but they are gone
I once had love but love left me.
I once had faith but now I kneel
before a blank eternity.

Three crows in murder on the fence,
one for heaven and one for hell,
they cackle at me constantly.
The third sits silent watching well.
