Meanwhile Back at the Nest

Only through dialogue with nature and the animal kingdom can we hope to fathom the human condition. Such conversation enables us to establish a fresh benchmark by which to gauge the significance of what it takes to be human in a truer sense of the word. This collection of poems represents the findings of a man who is still very much a work in progress
beyond observer's books
and climbing boys
there nests a bird
that only takes
to wing
to prey
on feeble-minded men
designed for toil
and useful days
but who stand too long
and gaze
gathering sunlight at its tail
it swoops unseen
and strikes
with song caresses
ear and mind
while talons grip
the heart
and choke all talk
this bird
part nightingale
part hawk
