Its b/c he is probably not using the work hawk to mean like, a bird. hawk has another definition "a person who aggressive of warlike policy" I'd have to see the sentence that comes before this but the poet is probably referring to something aggressive or warlike.

Well, usually most poetry doesn't use the word "the" in the poem. The reason is because it might sound too extra.
Hope i got it correct!

WITCHER [35]

English I, II Bell Ringer

Weeks 21/22, Day 1/ 2

LA.910.1.7.7 The student will compare and contrast elements in multiple texts

(e.g., setting, characters, and problems).

Read the passage and select the best answer.

Scott started nodding off in class. Mrs. Thomas tapped his desk as she passed it.

They started off the school year without a teacher and now that they had a teacher

they missed the substitute teachers. The class took advantage of every substitute

teacher that came in to teach. They would take turns dropping books, pass notes all

period, and take turns pretending to sneeze. Each day a different substitute teacher

would show up and every day they did everything they could think of to annoy

him or her. No one learned anything. The new teacher put an end to their antics.

The more disruptive they were, the more homework they received. It was bad

enough that she gave a ton of homework every night no matter how well behaved

they were. Scott looked over at his teammate Brian and smiled. He couldn’t wait

until the track meet this afternoon. Brian was an expert at the hurdles and Scott

was king of the long jump. Scott was having difficulty in school lately. He was

more interested in staying up late watching television and he was having difficulty

staying awake in class as a result. Brian was also struggling but he was having

trouble sleeping at night due to family problems. It seemed lately that his parents

arguments became louder and louder every night.

A. Both are on the football team.

B. Both are doing poorly in school.

C. Both are having family problems.

homework.

D. In the beginning the substitute teachers were giving too much homework and in the end they
