High Tree Hawk [Tanka]
the high tree hawk scans for prey from lofty heights; the rat scurries - unaware of far-flung foes, but side to wall all the same

Three Animal Haiku
I
treed monkeys —
each set of roving eyes
finds its own mark
II
a squirrel sniffs,
smelling the plump acorn
beneath damp leaves
III
a housecat
stalks prey, tiger-like,
no-mind / tail-mind

POEM: Crow in a Combative Stance
metallic beak —
rough striations worn smooth
like rough iron, burnished
feet planted wide–
one fore & one back,
in a combative stance
head low —
beak pointed accusatorily,
swiveling to resettle the eye
then, with flapping wings,
it’s gone
