There isn’t much to critique. It’s perfect

What is time
to you now,
little soul? Are you behind
the bright unblinking eye …. Touché
of this fat crow
nursing a heel of bread … nice word choice
I watch so long
I lose track of myself, missing
the small red hand … touche again. Here it would be the green man, but the little hand is perfect foreshadowing
that means it’s safe
to cross? Good people
come over to watch me
watch the windows
all night long, blow kisses
to the wind. With love
they warn me
not to waste my life
looking for signs, you … the reveal
who I can always find
between my ribs
and the stars. … perfection
This was written for a very beloved one who called me in sadness yesterday, so I'm glad it's doing something.
