Into the Teeth of the Wind

Selected poem from Volume III, Issue 2

Teeth cover

John Wilson

The Kill

I saw him at the turn
through my windshield
dive, and a moment later
after he had crossed

overhead, stoop
(this sharp little falcon
no longer named
sparrow hawk)

almost leisurely, almost
settling
down on the small
fluttering bird.
