To The Vulture

I cried, I begged, to the vulture on my knees
“Please don't go, not so soon!”
She inclined her head and said to me
“There is flesh to rip and bones to break
The sun is setting, I must away!”

I clung, I grasped, at the vulture with my hands
“Please don't go, not so soon!”
She lifted her head and screeched at me
“There are eyes to gouge and hearts to break
The sun is setting, I must away!”
