Ravens

As far as the ravens fly. Every evening right at dusk a figure would stand in the field across from our house. The sound of ravens crys filled the still nigh air. Then the figure would disappear. Kids would line up perched on frount porches begging to stay up even later. To see if the figure would come back out for the ravens it set free. The only two rules where that none could go into the field after midday. And the second, never go further than the ravens fly. The ones that disobeyed disapered only to be found days later bloody broken bodies twisted in a horrific ways. Arms flopped out at their sides like the wings of a bird. Like the wings of a raven.
