The Raven and His Roadmap

 


 


Cities of stone, faces unshaved

And doubtful

Lemonade with rose water

And uncertain tomorrows

 

Cities of steel, frigid autumns

And cold coffee

Brown eyes deeper than night

And forgotten promises

 

Cities dust, of desert sun

And lonesome walks

Burning vast skies

And wolves at dawn

 

Cities where my compass

And its South

Pointed only inward

And let me find

 

What I had never lost

In cities of stone, steel and dust


The promise

To find

My own

Way
