The Eagle

The Eagle

From the start I flew
Gaining momentum
Challenges appearing, I conquer
Threatened by internal conflict
I do not back down
Flocks of blackbirds
Swarm overhead, so I
Fly upward and intimidate
My ingeniousity guarantees my
Security of survival. Out of
Nowhere, a stray falcon hits me
Full gale, with my own feathers
Now my quest is to
Remain the best, so I
Assert my authority and
Taunt the blackbirds
Indiscriminately discriminating
And sink with the weight
But one day I will fly to the top again.
