Black Dot Perspective

The hawk I thought I saw was really a fly; the fly I thought I saw was a hawk.

The hawk against blue-white

bright of sky

Is a dot of black,

a dirty fly–

The fly at the window

not far off

Is a dot of black

magestic hawk!

(1999)

very clever and droll.

I like the two images – just an observation but with wisdom
