Intention - Tierney Ragsdale

Across the bloody skies
                  The crow chases the
                                               Butterfly.

Angel soft wings sweep through the wind,

At first the crow seems a beautiful phoenix
     So the butterfly falls to the crow
          Allows herself to be encased in his wings,

But the phoenix does not loosen his hold,
      And the butterfly looks to see
          The darkest feathers of the tomb.

She sees the crow.

He laughs and moves his sinews to suffocate,
       So the butterfly falls,

      Through the bloody green skies.
