The given words:
cold depraved powerful
look me in the eye
cool and collected
that’s what you think?
far from it!
cold as the bitter winter
even as I inspect my options
contending to be the most proficient
holding the trump card
and flashing as the siren blares
that’s what I am!
depraved?
far from it!
I swoop down silently
knocked the daylights of them critters
powerful talons do their job
curved beaks tear them apart
precision fare
failures?
Knocked the daylights of them critters - that's a great line!
ReplyDeleteThe grace of a raptor captured beautifully here...
ReplyDeleteI'm used to being swooped on by seagulls where I live, but they don;'t really so menacing as this feathered felon!
ReplyDeleteThey are a commanding force that is so true. Look out dear little critters there's a new king flying over!
ReplyDeleteThose critters sure don't know what hit them.
ReplyDeleteKnocked the daylights of them critters loved that description of a raptor
ReplyDeleteYes, it is pretty vivid!
DeleteNot just cool. You really captured the raptor.
ReplyDeleteThose critters better beware
ReplyDeleteI wish my eyes were as good as his!
ReplyDeleteThe Eagle is a very powerful creature. It's elegant and beautiful, but also vulnerable to it's enemies who wish to kill it. But it's also a fighter, and with that said, when that fighting side comes out, beware!
ReplyDeleteI am always awestruck when I see these raptors. They are magnificent in flight, but yes they are dangerous as well to those unsuspecting critters.
ReplyDeletefar from fair indeed.....
ReplyDeletewhat a stare they have though....
A solid huntsman! Nice perspective Hank
ReplyDeleteA different take!
ReplyDeleteEagle is a super subject for the prompt :)
Nicely described :)
