Notes About The Poem

the hawk

Currents of air

And there 

A Hawk 

Wings spread

So wide you saw the space 

Between its furtherest feathers

As it rode upon

The face of God,

Tatooed upon His Breath.

And I was lifted too,

My spirit rising

From a sleepy Death;

As moments of this life

Sometimes become.
