DELIVERIES

I have a book of 
Necessary superstitions.
(It never says
Why they're necessary.)
One is that every crow,
Raven, rook and grackle 
Flies to Hell once a week
To deliver a grain of sand.
There's no mention 
Of what's brought back
But I imagine it is
A different grain of sand.
The world may be slowly
Filling up with grains
Of hellish sand;
Much is explained.
