Two Eagles (Free verse) by Frass
The window washers look in at me
swarthy brown skin sweating
Aztec twins, conquistador progeny
Cool
Within
I tap
Keybored
Four floors up they spin
Their eyes flashing, obsidian knives
They have received little training for such stunts
Four centuries from a noble past
Extinguished
Like eagles with snakes dangling in their grasps
The braided cable, glinting, slides past
Rattling in ascension towards the sun
