my house in the woods

And God,

please let the deer

on the highway

get some kind of heaven.

Something with tall soft grass,

and sweet reunion.

Let the moths in porch lights

go some place

with a thousand suns,

that taste like sugar

and get swallowed whole.

May the mice

in oil and glue

have forever dry, warm fur

and full bellies.

If I am killed

for simply living,

let death be kinder

than man.

September is Crow Month masterpost

What do we do for Crow Month? Host or attend a Crow Party, either a private one with your friends or an open one in a public place like a park or a library event room.

What is a Crow Party? It's time for everyone in attendance to wear black- the fancier the outfit the better, but casual is ok too- and to deck themselves out in silly amounts of shiny things and jewelry.

What do you do at a Crow Party? Bring little treasures like neat rocks, beads, marbles, or any other sort of shiny object, to swap and trade! Also play board games, card games, or just bring a book to read and vibe with your fellow Crow Party people.

How can I tell people about my open Crow Party? I've made a pdf flier, you can download it from google docs here or dropbox here. Print out and post wherever you think people will notice it!

Spread the word!
