The crow represents people who finally look at the famous person and realize that they are not important. (:

This phrase uses the poetic device of metaphor, comparing fame to food to convey the idea that fame can be unpredictable and temporary, just like the nature of food.
Emily Dickinson
Food is the nourishment that sustains life. By stating that fame is a food, the poet suggests that some people use it for nourishment. The real meaning of this metaphor lies in the use of the adjectives 'fickle" to describe the food, fame, and in the use of "shifting" to describe the plate used for serving fame. The poet also extends the metaphor and adds another layer of meaning when she references that crows, unlike man, actually inspect the food of fame, and see it for what it is, and flap past it to fame's opposite, the very basic farmer's corn, while men eat fame and die, suggesting that Nature is wiser than man. Obviously, Emily Dickinson is speaking of spiritual, not physical, death.
In "Fame is a fickle food," Emily Dickinson uses the metaphor of crows to represent the fickleness and untrustworthiness of fame. The crows prefer "the crumbs" of more substantial, enduring qualities such as integrity, authenticity, and genuine connection, rather than the fleeting and superficial nature of fame. This suggests that while fame may attract attention, it lacks the nourishment that comes from deeper, meaningful experiences and relationships.
This is a line from a poem, Fame is a Fickle Food. Suggested meaning is that one moment you are famous, next minute you are not. You can be easily passed by, Fame is a fickle food Upon a shifting plate Whose table once a Guest but no A second time is set. Whose crumbs the crows inspect And with ironic caw Flap past it To the farmers corn - Men eat of it any die.
I'm not sure what it symbolizes; but if a crow follows you; 1) you have food it wants 2) It thinks you're endangering it's nest.
The crow's food was approaching in front of the crow and the crow grabbed it up with its beak and gobbled it up in one second.
the theme of fame is a fickle food is reality
The crow is pecking at the ground to search for food, such as insects, worms, or seeds.
Food burning can symbolize carelessness or distraction, as it is often a result of forgetting about food cooking on a stove or in an oven. It can also symbolize a loss of nourishment or sustenance, as burnt food is no longer edible. Additionally, it may represent a waste of resources or negligence.
