Read the Poem "High Dive" and then answer the prompt that follows.

High Dive

My stomach is communing with my toes

My legs - boiled noodles having no will to support

I force one foot up

then the other.

I hold fiercely to the hand rails

as I climb slowly.

The voices of my fear screech their warnings,

"Don't go! Don't go!"

Pushing my fear behind me, I step onto the board.

It quivers alive - mirroring my quaking legs.

I struggle cautiously to the end;

Cementing my feet, I lean precariously forward

and peer into the depths below.

The twinkling eyes of the ripples catch my frightened stare;

The crystalline nymphs implore me,

"Just fall forward! Stretch out your fingers. We will catch you!"

I almost believe leaning ever nearer

Then - fear grabs me.

"Don't do it! It's too far!"

The voices do battle;

I'm caught in between!

Suddenly a new voice enters the fray.

"If you're gonna jump, jump! You're holding up the line!"

I turn, aware that several bodies block my escape.

I look to the right and see my friends beckoning far beneath me.

I lock my fear away,

Place my arms over my head

and fall forward.

My fingers slice the surface

I plunge into the quiet depths

Hearing the whispers around me

"You did it! You did it!"

I emerge - smiling -

The nymphs victorious

Fear slinks away.

I leave the pool and walk back with gained confidence to where my journey began.

The speaker is at first, afraid. They are struggling with their inner self about whether or not to jump. The speaker states that they struggle to the end. As the/she gets a look into the rippling water below, their fear grabs them even more. But soon, he/she states that a voice told them that if they were going to jump, to just jump. After another second of contemplation, the speaker finally overcomes their fear. Their transformation went from a person full of fear at the thought of jumping, to a person empty of that fear who cleared their mind and just did it.

Hope this helps!
