Oh, this gave me shivers. Well done - very visual. At least for me!
It unsettles me, too--delightfully. Thanks for sharing this with us this week.
I have to admit I have to look up icarus, good descriptive words and usage
This is a scene I see almost daily along our river and your words have described it perfectly. Osprey!
I saw this happen once while eating at a restaurant across from a salt marsh. Very startling! You matched your myth well.
Beautifully done! Reminds me of our Red-Tailed hawks at the Swamp!
absolutely vivid... and i have a hawk that nests close,, so i know this vision first hand....
Love the imagery of the stoop.
What an image! Love it..

'icarus-like hawk'-(may be he does not read zen)..many thanks..
Awesome imagery.
Sue,
Thank you for this.
Made me think of the hawk who frequents our neighborhood. I have named him "Kamikaze" for his reckless abandon and surrender to the dive. (and I fear for my dog).

I like the movement, it's a very dynamic haiku.
I could actually see the hawk doing that. I'm glad that I'm not the prey!
fractals are one of my favorite things. I loved this one.
Those first two hyphenated words set the scene with a powerful force! Wonderful!
Wonderful visual image. Sorry to be so late visiting.
