The Crows

a palindrome, a monometer sonnet, a perfect anagram by line

by Anthony Etherin

Deft, I saw
a crow, over us,
a sure vow or caw,
as it fed.

They stop
and perch
atop
the church,
a choir
below
the spire:
The crows.
Each caw
enlists
ten more.
The mist
is grey
as clay.

Winter enfolds varied echoes
in a white or fevered coldness.
A crow flies over tended shine.
The fields are covered in snow….
