SPARROWHAWK

 An immaculately dressed assassin

Stands beneath the red leaved tree.

Her beautiful suit

Of grey and brown feathers

Perfectly fitting and subtly understated.

She bows her head and plucks

The breast of her victim.

A pigeon pinned down

By her sharp taloned feet.

I have seen the angel of death.
