The Mighty Eagle Feasts

The mighty eagle feasts
The sleek swift fish leaps and steals
The lovely meat for himself
Bless the fish who did not base the
Flawless beauty of his faith on doubt

The mighty eagle circles low for he seeks revenge

And I am the widow of elegies
I go back to the follies of my youth to see
How ruinous my last move was against your love
