i hear people calling my unpronounceable name
nobody does
but all the same
i hear unnamed people calling my name
let me talk some nonsense for a while
i have tried to roll it in my head
longing for the owner of a shadow
now stop the gravel gets darker
black nights witness that i accept black nights
the crow circles straight and silent
