Scarce and Local

" Scarce and Local "

by Suzán Jiván

Scarce and local
little time
often soaring
broad wings
short tail
long note
near nest,
"yelp, yelp, yelp"
shaped like a hawk
feeds like a scavenger
on road-killed animals
black crest, black belly
pale areas scaled back
gathering mottling
weak harsh marmots
held horizontal
rusty orange
hollow carcass...
