BLACKBIRD (acrostic)
Nearly midnight he comes calling,
Evening but a memory.
Vision blurring, eyelids falling
Eventual sleep is stalking me.
Right before dreams take my night
Mild tapping wakes me from near sleep.
Outside the moon is full and bright
Ravens through my widows peep.
Ever croaking "nevermore"...
