The Hawk Among the Races

Like a stone castle to its base
he is bound to the branch,
they watch

the billion synchronized eyes staring up
for that gnarly mantle
on which he sits

chest high, he meets their massive
gaze through wayward limbs
and contemplates

messages in foreign tongues,
as their breaths deepen ,
and the stillness among them
rises
