UnComfortably numb

Hello

Is there anybody in there

Just nod if you can hear me

Is there anyone at home

Come on now

I hear you're feeling down

I can ease your pain

And get you on your feet again

Relax

I'll need some information first

Just the basic facts

Can you show me where it hurts

Thus thought the raven as he flew

Although he knew

In just time soon

The human would be looking at him

With those same dull eyes that appear to be stitched into his flesh

The raven was back again this time with a different approach to the human 

I can help the human he thought

I can ease his pain

The reason he doesn't talk is because he is afraid. 

All he needs is a friend to tell

The stories of his hell

The raven sat on his fence but within distance of the human among the corn.

I can help you he squawked

I can help you

I can help you just tell me

I can help you if you open up

The human stood there motionless

Let me help you! The bird now getting angry

Let me help you!

The human just stood there behind his mask. The human refused help by simply doing nothing. 

The raven was furious at this point since he had thrown himself out of his comfort to help an enemy

Listen to me! You need help!

The human just stared back, arms straight out, body tilted to the side, straw hat.

The raven flew off. Hungry today not just because of no food but because he wanted to help and his help was not wanted. 

Could the human have gotten help if he wanted?

Among the Scarecrows, Fly on Raven

14/02/25

The raven perches on the fence watching. Wondering. Thinking. 

The human looks back with the same fake smile It has everyday. The raven sees the food, see the opportunities he has laying before him. The sun reflecting off of the food casts a haze of dull light around the field

The hungry crow now flies around

Hungry for food

Hungry to get ahead

Hungry to fulfill his plans

Hungry to get on with his life

Hungry to fly

Hungry to eat

.

"You have never seen the other side human! You have wanted but always had! You have strived for and always gained! You have been hungry but never without food! You have been hurt but always healed! You have seen the light and not turned back! You have had hard times but they haven't molded you!  You have been in the fire but never burned! You have been amongst the shit flying around but you have never been hit. Human

You sit there day after day with that smile on your face human. But what's behind that face. You've had it hot some days I've seen. But where are your burns and the stories to see.

Why.

What do you live for when you have hidden your past. No sunlight or moonlight or rain or snow causes you to act any different human. You worry day after day. For what do you stand in this field for day after day if you won't say what you mean and mean what you say."

And with this the raven flew off. 

"Amongst the scarecrows, fly on raven."
