Superb Owl
Dug a hole up from the river and perching now up on a tree Omeny, a superb owl, looks back down on me.
Watched me dig throughout the night turned a head from side to side, I lay inside, huh, didn't feel right.
Where are you now, superb owl? As I climb out, light it dawns.
Through the day the sun shine on me I tread the path to reach the end, it never has but all things pass, even the path must someplace end.
Sun descended no send in sight no sight at all light fails and I fall, I knew this hole, I know it now, I know you, superb owl.
Watch me now when I get out do you see me or do you hoot to hope it's you whose light does shine from out of those eyes?
Slung my throat and stung my liver alone I felt the nightning leave, did you leave or silent sentry? Does an omen stop to file or flee?
Fly away superb owl come or go make no sound, perch and judge me superbly, like a demon turn your head around.
In the night shone on me with those eyes, I would run but for the path I lost, busting through the countryside would I find the hole again I caused?
Night caused cloak to fell aground, shadows cast in caves and on the highest ground, one creature's not around: where are you hoot hoot hoot, hoot hoot?
Superb owl, superb owl make an omen out of a molehill; superb owl, superb owl be the vulture to the vole; superb owl, be the killer to the mouse kill, be the muscle to the onion's tropes.
