A step too far, brings right of passage to a ledge Fluttering at cliff walls, pushing life’s brittle edge A sheer instinctive thrust, with no trust to pledge Now or never moment, undermines fear’s wedge A chick leaps off, flailing frail wings fail to fledge Featherweight of hope meets a ten-pound sledge Crashing straight down, no safety net to dredge Next guy flaps like mad, landing softly in a hedge
