It was murder, pure and simple
He was an innocent man
the perfect spotless Lamb
and they murdered Him
If it weren’t for Nicodemus
and Joseph of Arimathea
His body would have been
devoured by a murder of crows

The Poetics prompt at dVerse Poets Pub today is “for the birds.” De wants us to write poetry using one or more of the many names for flocks of birds. I decided to write about a murder, a murder of crows, that is.
