Helter Skelter

Helter Skelter

There is a crow atop the electric wire

Reincarnated from the ashes of a tempestuous friar

Cawing furiously as sparrows scurry for cover

His hungry beak salivating just as the maddened lover

Evergreen branches provide the necessary shelter

Pine needles thwarting the tragedy of helter skelter

A tiny sentinel guards the chirping flock

Impatiently the black-feathered rogue monitors Nature’s clock

Almighty God created the prodigious and the weak

Aristotle explained the doings of an imperishable God in early Greek

Be as the sparrows, and be not afraid

Take flight midst the evil and fight the crusade

Thank you,
