I’d rather understand how to sing from a crow who was never good at singing or much of anything but finding gold in the trash of humans.
So what are we doing here I ask the crow parading on the ledge of falling that hangs over this precarious city?

Or now that the world is neither flat nor round but in the shape of a spiral, the shape of the mind of God.
