normal in a world where speech is normal, Lynn was

Hawk Hughes Poem
461 words
y outset, it is clear that the hawk is in control.
The poem begins assertively with the pronoun I.
The hawk is so secure in his position that he is
able to announce the fact that he is resting,
inaction, with his eyes closed. There is no
falsifying dream he has nothing to hide between
his hooked head and hooked feet. The repetition of
hooked puts the reader on guard it sounds slightly

However, if his actions and speeches are examined
closer, it is evident that he is a limited and
vain person who is overly concerned with his
appearance and wears different masks to tune up to
different peo...
