The Eagles
Seductive eagles soaring down,
To empty fields,
Through glowing blue skies,
Tyrant eagles scanning barren land,
Searching for slow rodent,
Even to laugh at the swift,
Nothing is found,
Soaring high again,
Against powerful winds,
Over a dizzying sea,
Climbing toward the orange flames,
Climbing,
Star spangled feathers pressed tight,
Against the throbbing flesh,
Down below a small black oval,
Teetering on the white caps,
Descend,
Yellow beaks rapidly leading,
A growing black vessel, with bright red mast...
