Damn bird! Away from my window,
You're the Devil's spawn evil crow.
A dream stealer, that's what you are,
'Twas a lovely dream; not bizarre.
A lissome lass, not an old hag,
N'er covered her face with a flag.
She was everything I desire,
Oh! Her legs kept going higher.
A dream from heaven sent to me,
A fleshly woman on my knee.
Mounds of Venus pressed to my chest,
Oh yes, I know I have been blessed.
Until you came you blasted fowl,
You, you Peeping Tom on the prowl.
Look at the damage you have done,
You'd better be glad I've no gun.
Smothered crow in onions for lunch,
Sensuous dream spoiled, but I'll eat you . . . crunch.

T M I Jerry, but an amusing take on Poe type Raven.
I enjoyed it.  Couldn't help but shake my head and smile
