The Kestrel

                                             
              My feet are locked upon the rough bark.
              It took the whole of Creation
              To produce my foot, my each feather:
              Now I hold Creation in my foot

              Or fly up, and revolve it all slowly -
              I kill where I please because it is all mine.
              Nothing has changed since I began.
              I am going to keep things like this.

A gloomy afternoon at Wicken, with the kestrel keeping it like it is.
