the eagle has landed

The eagle has landed.


A very electric man who has vast riches
 has hitherto behaved as your next-door neighbor 
he might think he is that neighbor 
He is not an eagle sits on top of a tree, on branches further
down lesser birds that fly in formation
the eagle flies alone and harbors a loathing for
ducks and gees
He knows argumentative crows can be bother
some leave a trail open for them, a path that he can pretend
to join when a hunt does not disturb the eagle's instinct
 This is, if we like it or not, the way the nature someone is doomed
to be the leader to keep the rabbits in check,
less they should demand equity
