a deep drawn breath
and a step that glides
to stand like a mountain
that moves like the wind
to grasp a scabbard
like roots of a tree
willing to bend
in a gusting breeze
to rush with the force
of a tidal wave
at the speed
of a serpents strike
with as little movement
as a blink of an eye
To stand like stainless stone
and flow like a river
holding patience
as though it were
a praying mantis
Look a dragon in the eyes
and circle a tiger's stance
with the grace of a crane
rise above the battle's dance
first extend a flower of thought
and see how it is held
if it is handed back crumpled
have compassion
although the pond is rippled
and if they
should advance
like a lion after a meal
let them feel the steel
