descending
with supreme intentionality
legs and weaponized abdomen
hang in calm readiness
the greatest position of power

yet all those eyes
confounded
by a single thread
one leg is caught
and that unseen threat is realized

the intense struggle
time is of the essence
as imminent death
lies in wait
for the apparently inevitable capture

yet liberation is here
in the random form
of human ego
an attempt to hold this moment
the irony is clear

Peace/Love
