Black Drongo Black Drongo, King of Crows, Bruised and Maimed From a Lifetime of Fights The crippled bird; A poor imitation Of what he used to be Totters to freedom Gingerly! Battle scarred and wearied He eyes the blue skies beseechingly; Shaking off the clotted blood And muck from his proud wings Determined not to perch Ever again Summons up his breath For the last Flight He takes to the skies!

A Black Drongo's last flight
Transcript of Black Drongo
Black Drongo
Black Drongo,
King of Crows,
Bruised and Maimed
From a Lifetime of Fights
The crippled bird;
A poor imitation
Of what he used to be
Totters to freedom
Gingerly!
Battle scarred and wearied
He eyes the blue skies beseechingly;
Shaking off the clotted blood
And muck from his proud wings
Determined not to perch
Ever again
Summons up his breath
For the last Flight
He takes to the skies!
