I still hear the ravens scream
through that lonely prison cell,
streaked vermilion with his blood
in early dawn.
I find ebon silhouettes
eclipse the edges of my mind,
their evil daggers clutched
by crimson hands.
I view footprints set in stone,
turn fluid as liquid gold,
then run into the night
without a trace.
I am my brother's blood,
though he lies in sweet repose,
a mirror to reflect
his wrongful case.
