Overheard at Table 4: Unkindness of Ravens

 #horrorprompt 447 Unkindness of Ravens


The Unkindness of Ravens, the
old folk said. If seen, grab a sprig of barley,
crush it between your fingers,
blow the dust.

If not, your mother will die.

Thought they were joking.

Until the morning I saw
my father

and the knife.
