One And The Same

 is this close away the same

beech (three) slightly apart stand weakly watch

proudly mark her place on rough icy ground

strutting crow (too many to count) engage stare gather ahead

argue for whatever their murderous reasons

no one seems to know

there is something here she says

searching in the very circles of her 

do you see she asks without speaking

unknowing he nods only seeing crow 

unmistakably being 

crow
