It's basically a metaphor-he's comparing himself to the rock and the hawk.

this poem is a powerful play between two symbols. one of steadfast and
unmoving... pride almost, and one of savage brilliant power. the rock and
the hawk.
the difference between the "bright power" and the "dark peace" is what, i
feel, the poet is trying to bring across to his readers. and that where one
thing is eternal, and the other momentary, they are no less important to
each other.
i loved reading this poem, it gives this sense of fierce determination, and
i can almost feel the sea wind on my face, hear the cry of the hawk.
