One evening, I heard a noise from above. A call, like sandpaper on silk, roughened by time and use, compelling me to look up. Shiny black feathers, a bullet of coal, swooping with determination to beat the setting sun. And then another, and another, and another. The sky suddenly filled with creatures of beauty, soaring, plummeting, talking together like excited children. I reveled in their freedom and mystery. I ached to fly with them. Instead, I walked on, eyes fixed skyward, following the inky blackness moving east. An epiphany of crows. A pretty murder.
