A tiny leaf falls
breathing "September", drifting
gently west, weightless.

Frigatebird
Beak grips neck, wings flail
Thief! Robber! Breath fails, fish falls
Frigate bird has food.
The frigate bird does not fish. He ambushes other birds who have fished and are heading home with their catch. He grips their neck and they cannot fly, carry and fight all at once. Unable to breathe, they drop the fish. The frigate bird dives and catches it, and has his lunch.
