words are ancient trees anchored in seed and soil

singing up from their roots sweet sap to branch and leaf

sunlight and rain upon bark and birch

ravens nesting in their arms


words are ancient spells codes odes and oracles

syllable and consonant cluster on the tongue

cascading from the open mouth

sunlight and rain upon their skin


this is why the ravens sing
