Right of Passage

he has skipped among the surface
a soft pebble balancing on breaks;
a limestone never displaced
settling among the smooth; easy

the motion of birds overhead
migrating among the flock;
instinctually led to an oasis
is it a passionate passage?

the mild rush of a cold current
as the school bristles amongst;
fighting against the constant flow
a revelation in their struggle

numbers no longer bring him harmony
a solitary phoenix forged in the fire
not a death but a graceful rebirth
his first flight a sharp plummet

now amongst the predators
he casts himself against
it is not instincts but awakening
he finds new hunting grounds
