Literature Text

For swallows, I prey
A hawk divine.
Doves with collars
Cease to fly,
Graceful, fearful,
Blue-grey
Eyes wide.
Pecking, ordered,
Tame as stone, hot
Sunlight on red berries,
Blood in green
They try to escape me
Swooping words
Feathered, like clockwork
Running birds

On adventures with my notebook.

"Feathered, like clockwork." <3 you have as much a way with words as you do the pencil, so to speak
