The Finch and The Hawk
A letter was on a page
part of a word
part of a conciousness
flowing out of the river of ideas
ebbing from the
lake of creativity.
The letter vibrates
through the air
into sylables and
sweet swinging
notes by a
satisfied Finch.
A Hawk comes
over and
shadows
the Finch,
the sweet notes
catching in the
poor Finch's throat
as the Hawk
blots the paper with
its cruel retorts.
As the Hawk
laughs
at the insignificant creature, he is
reminded of the struggle
they all face.
The Rabbit
gets away and he is forced
to seek help
from the Finch.
The Finch complies
his respect and
responsibility
to help others
finally shown through
the author's pen,
page blotless.
