This was it.
 I could see it in front of me.
 The stream was ending.
 I had to jump.
 The strong current was blinding.
 The mischievous drops of water were going against me.
 I picked up speed.
 Flapping my tail fin one hundred times a second.
 Propelling forward faster and faster.
 I jumped.
 Elegantly soaring through the air.
 Slipping right through a grizzly bear’s jaws.
 I could see the open sky above,
 and the rushing water crashing below.
 Then just like that, I gracefully slipped through the quiet
 and frigid waters.
 My adventure was over.
