. Wings beat to overtake. Now, above you like a fire shot In a silent film the rush begins. Wings fold inward, the air turrents, Streams, as a ball swirling in a tube, Grey bullet in the barrel, The slide to the **** and the talons, Make their mark before the hitch. Soft plosives bearly sounding, Crake, blood cupped in the claws, From the breast and the rose Heart, now in a tail spin,
Nostrils whine in the fall. No jury just but a sup of the faded Heart by one raging one. The wilted wings are stirring To the last as the pointed Wingman ferries, the wholly bred, Quarry of perfection, jolts And jilts, and His scythe of feathers Holds sway in the whirl. As the God-made creature From high heaven flies The mourning dove must die.
