HANDELL'S OPEN LETTER

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE WHITE AND BEIGE EAGLE I SAW ON THE SIDEWALK NEARBY MY HOUSE LAST WEEK.

Dear eagle,

First of all, I have to complain about something: eagles shouldn´t be that coward. How come a skillful murderer like you can be afraid of cars. Nonetheless, I´m still your biggest admirer. I think you should already know that graceful creatures like you should be photographed all the time by bums like me. You could have, at least, stood still on that unreachable bough so my lens could have taken a nice fine portrait of you. But a second car definitely showed me how sissy an eagle can be. You are so selfish, you didn´t even care about me standing on midday sunlight aiming my camera at you while holding my dry breath. I know that you were probably in a hurry, perhaps, you were being chased by some bigger hunter at that moment. Still, I think you were able to fight it and to raise your beak with pride standing on your cold opponent corpse. That would have been a picture valuable enough to be sent to NatGeo. Can you imagine all the money I would have made. But let´s forget about it. I still love eagles.

Truly, a real admirer of eagles.
