The hawk flew face-first into the room, by KH


The hawk flew face-first into the room
Immediately slicing the sinews of he and I
went careless through castles
        Negligent             night
        Reckless              routes
        And slipshod       shadow
He dropped dinner;

The last concern
patient patrons prod rodent
Nascent climb its savior’s leg
To sexual harassment the holy ass
We giggle love now squirrel’s caress

The Clumsy King watches now
Eyes coated in halcyon
And talons wrapped in pride
Let ulcer skirt home
Let people have pock-marked ropes
It ain’t worth the damn bother
