Ink black
flying night sky
the raven calls to me
he sings
in my dreams

Fluttering wings
beat a tattoo
against my breast
he calls
in my dreams

Painted high
hangs a mezza luna
and a lone-star-venus
he beckons
in my dreams

Ebony eye
fingertip soft
taps my shoulder
he covets
in my dreams

"Raven speak!
Tell me truth.
Show me a stargate to heaven."

Black shadows
cross my brow
dark envelops
he embraces
in my dreams
