That Hawk

That hawk
you are determined to fetishize

has no interest in carrying
your symbolism or the past life biography

your plastic shaman
of the moment gave you.  

All she wants is a fat mouse in her fist,
a quick meal, and after that

the cold,
welcoming sky.  You

can do whatever you want
as long as you keep your distance.
