Short poem about seagulls on the ocean's horizon- what is their place in this hour, and is it a position held only for them?

Grey wings flash before the horizon
Casting flickering shadows on the placid sea below
Caww!
Caww!
Hear them scream in bright of morning
In some strange, cantankerous tongue,
Seemingly struggling for a coherency
Long since lost
As their beady eyes survey the still waters
Gliding,
Skimming,
Piloting currents one can only vaguely intuit
Should their mastery turn elsewhere
Who else could take up the wing
To patrol the eastern shore?
