    Macbeth and ‘Hawk Roosting’ share some common ground in that they are concerned with the unpleasant side of power and ambition. The main characters in both texts appear to be overly confident and assured. ‘Hawk Roosting’ is a dramatic monologue spoken by a non-human voice: a hawk. We are provided with a series of images which depict the hawk’s arrogance and pride. Indeed‚ the hawk is brimming with superiority: ‘It took the whole of Creation/To produce my foot‚ my each feather.’ The hawk is seemingly

    Humans have a destructive instinct just like hawks. They are set out to survive and that’s it. Humans are willing to destroy anything‚ trees to make houses and animals to have food‚ to survive. Hawks are also willing to destroy anything to survive‚ such as the life of their prey so they can eat. Once a human or hawk destroys something‚ they do not feel bad or feel pity because they are internally evil‚ even if they don’t mean to be. When Hughes wrote “Now I hold Creation in my foot‚” that is an

    In both “Hawk Roosting” by Ted Hughes and “Golden Retrievals” by Mark Doty‚ the power of perspective is revealed through two seemingly dichotomous animals: one of air and one of land.

While for the hawk there is absolute power in the ‘pause’ - control through inaction‚ the golden retriever finds power in literal ‘paws’ - control through intentional action. Both Hughes and Doty manipulate
