promise of the raven By Linda M. Crate

11/22/2017

i am a raven
they chose me

my humanity
is different than your own

magic and light
are woven in my bones

in this battle
you may survive,

but only until it is over;
then your greed

will be the noose that snares you
to the darkest underworld

​
you will not be kissed
by the lips of freya or odin

even loki will scorn your presence
the goddess of the underworld

won't look your way but in contempt and disgust
that ever such a woeful creature was born

inhabiting the realm of earth
from which he sorely didn't deserve.
