Hi guys, I'm on a bit on an Animorphs kick at the moment and I'm looking for poems about hawks, especially red-tails. Thank you! In return, an unrelated poem:
Wolf - Alessandra Lynch
My owl was
a deadened petal. My moon
a leadweight hat.
Sinewy and sidelong, I

Mirkka Rekola and a request
"When the world is full of agents of my memory,
I have already said that it is
