The Crows of Hyde Park | Ted Frisbie

 

The crows of Hyde Park

are made of black plastic bags

and leave no shadows.

 

 

But then how many

ways to look at a big crow?

Avoid the wrong way.

 

 

Black plastic bags or

crows perch in the leafless trees-

All three ride the wind.

 

 

Plastic bag stuck high

in oak tree, slowly shredding

itself into crows.

 

 

I've flown black crows all

winter; now it's time for my

rainbow kite to soar.

 

 

What would the snows and

crows of winter do if my

rainbow kite joined them?
