The Cry Of the Hawk

by Twan - Aries

silent forests.

underpopulated trees
 
unstoppable army ants
pissed-off Killer Bees
A hawk flies alone 

he's seemingly tame
his hunting prowess puts
the other hunters to shame

the carnivores know nothing 
they see nothing
when they stop by woods on snowy evenings

the hawk stares down superciliously 
a smirk on his face
he releases a cry
that puts the weak in their place

then he swoops down
everyone wants to vacate
but they've heard the cry of the hawk
its already too late.

Reason for writing:

    a tribute to mr.goldfarb
