Non-Amazing Dragonswimmer

Theodore was an amazing dragonfly. He was foot long and bright red in color. No frog or lizard even thought about catching him.
He delighted in making 90-degree turns in every single direction spherical geometry allowed. He could walk on water when he felt like it, but this was far too tempting for the fish below. Theodore being an amazing dragon fly, had far too much self-esteem to make himself fish food. The fish seeing him walking on water were not, oddly enough, tempted to call him messiah but rather got really hungry and despite his size (and amazingness) started trying to figure out how to wrestle him down their gullets.
Some times he sat on a particular twig under a particular Jujube tree gazing out at the world through kaleidoscope eyes.
“What can I do that would be really amazing?” He thought to himself. He leapt up and made sixteen 90-degree turns in a row, some vertical, some horizontal and quite a few arcs in-between.
“That was really amazing,” several fish said to each other as they looked up at Theodore.
“Yeah, but can he swim?” said another.
