crows gather
in the space between
autumn and
the winter
wander over the brown fields
and wail for our day

Crows. There were so so many around in recent days. And very chatty.

I love this one, with it’s in-between time, and the crows.

the in-between, or as some know it: the liminal space, always fascinates me. a natural phenomena ignored by some.

oops hit send by accident… it is that ability to make transitions from one state to another that we can move forward, ex. into adulthood. The use of ritual is fading away unfortunately, in my opinion, and thus so is our ability to make more smooth transitions.

Yes, I think you’re right. Though there are some rituals that might not be beneficial, and might even be harmful, others are often very useful in making transitions–mourning periods, for example.

thanks. recently there was a large (more than three dozen) gathering of crows in the vacant lot across from my co-op. There was a bit of an uneasiness at the sight, as if it was a harbinger of something.

I think it has to be a raven for it to be a harbinger of bad luck, and it has to settle on the roof of your house. If it stays off the roof you’re in the clear 🙂
