Severus Alexander

There arose amongst a smattering of white-winged cries

About each other circling and peering out from baleful eyes

All the doves and other city-birds into the upper skies

 

A woman on the ground halted in stride, where her gaze was

Drawn down from such a trivial and un-enduring sight

And scoffed at their beauty, no longer accompanied by flight
