Ravens in the Library |
| One flies in to case the joint |
| Boldly struts around |
| Two fly in to make it three |
| Laugh a while and knock each other down |
| Four flies in with a frowning walk |
| Gains a laugh from out a squawk |
| But it’s five who owns the place |
| And proves it with a look |
| Stopping six and seven in their tracks |
| From smuggling a book |
| Words within our grasp — do we let go? |
| Do we fly heavily with the weight of what we know? |
| Words within our grasp — do we let go? |
| Do we fly heavily with what we know? |
| My friend bids me come and see |
| The ravens in the library |
| Setting quiet pages free |
| My friend bids me come and see |
| The ravens in the library |
| Setting quiet pages free |
| One for fiction, two for truth (One for sorrow) |
| Three for bikes and bathing suits (Two for joy) |
| Four for sci-fi/fantasy (Three for girls and four for boys) |
| Five loves art and ancient skulls (Five for silver) |
| Six eats periodicals (Six for gold) |
| Seven lives in poetry (Seven for a secret never told) |
| One hangs out on the drama shelves (One crow sorrow) |
| But keeps the monologues to herself (Two crows mirth) |
| Two and three are studying jewels (Three a wedding, four a birth) |
| Four reads all about the Huns (Five crows silver) |
| Five won’t share the shiny ones (Six crows gold) |
| Six and seven label molecules (Seven ravens, curious and bold) |
| Words within our grasp — do we let go? |
| (Words within our grasp) |
| Do we fly heavily with the weight of what we know? |
| (Do we let go?) |
| Words within our grasp — do we let go? |
| (Do we fly heavily with the weight) |
| Do we fly heavily with what we know? |
| (Of what we know) |
| Hours of study flying by |
| Words soaked up by beady eyes |
| Long debates into the night |
| Pages flying everywhere |
| Seek the language word by word |
| Like the black and clever bird |
| Never let it bring you down |
| All the things we haven’t figured out |
| My friend bids me come and see (Knitting up the 'raveled) |
| The ravens in the library (Sleeve of care) |
| Setting quiet pages free (Pages flying everywhere) |
| My friend bids me come and see (Knitting up the 'raveled) |
| The ravens in the library (Sleeve of care) |
| Setting quiet pages free (Pages flying everywhere) |
| Seven reads about the gods |
| Chuckles to herself |
| To the rest, she never lets on |
| Try to catch a glimpse of them |
| Bickering like mortal men |
| Feathers on the sidewalk |
| If you heard a raven say such horrible words |
| As the ones you may have heard in your day to day |
| Would it make you choose your own more carefully |
| Around the ones you love? |
| My friend bids me come and see (Knitting up the sleeve of care) |
| The ravens in the library |
| Setting quiet pages free (Pages flying everywhere) |
| My friend bids me come and see (Knitting up the sleeve of care) |
| The ravens in the library |
| Setting quiet pages free (Pages flying everywhere) |
| Setting quiet pages free (Pages flying everywhere) |
| Setting quiet pages free (Pages flying everywhere) |
| Setting quiet pages free |
