A Haunting Dream

There came the call of dark wings flapping,

 blackest beak of nightmares tapping

Harshest scream of moon-lit woe, 

imperial in deathly throws

The raven said to bring the flood, 

of corpses drowned in seas of blood

They gather near those felled by pride, 

to guard the gate where Death resides

Their call is known by beast and man,

 the end of all in harshest land.
