TIGHTROPE
STANDING
ON A TIGHTROPE
HOPING
NOT TO LOSE HOPE
AS THE ABYSS YAWNS
BELOW ME
BUT IT'S NOT THE ONLY
DANGER
BETWEEN THE SHORES
OF JOY AND ANGER
AND THE CLIFFS THAT SOAR
ABOVE ME
BETWEEN THE DIZZY, DAFFY
DANCE OF BEING
& THE BUBBLING PIT
OF NAUSEOUS VILE
ONLY FRICTION
SAFELY GUIDES ME
I FEEL THE EARTH BEFORE ME
IN ALL IT'S SPINNING GLORY
A BILLION & ONE NIGHTS
OF STARRIED STORIES
MY LONGITUDE & LATITUDE
THE STRAITS OF BEATITUDE
THE EYE OF A
NEEDLE'S LEEWAY
DESPITE A STATIC CALENDAR
A DUSTY OLD COMET
STILL MEANDERS
OH COSMIC CALLIOPE
ANCIENT HOBO
HERMIT HERALD
DEEP SKY REMINDER
OF LIFE'S MYSTERIOUS GRANDEUR
