A dramatic tossing bushes
Every which way wind last night
A lumpy porridge sky above
That left the birds in fright
Imagine being holed up
In a nest of roots and feathers
Blown about like flotsam
Despite all your endeavours
A roost as high as any
A city in a way
So many crows come hither
They make a fine display
Hundreds of birds together
A parliament of sorts
Every soul a thinking soul
Displaying complex thoughts
