Analysis of Know To Crow



If you desire
To find the mate of your soul
Then you need to
Open your mouth
And learn how to Crow.

The search is not
As hard as you make it,
Just let out a crow,
And dare not
To fake it.

For out of the mouth,
Pour the issues
Of the soul,
So open up –
And know to Crow!
